Carinthia

Known for its: Lakeside Recreation
With over 2000 hours of sunshine a year and lakes stretching out in every which direction, it's easy to see how Carinthia earns the nickname of 'Austria's Alpine Riviera'.

For a unique experience visit Carinthia’s Dreiländereck (three country junction) area in the Julian Alps, where at a type of ‘tri-summit’ you can stand with one foot in Austria, one foot in Italy and a stretched arm in Slovenia. Three countries on one holiday and in just one moment – incredible! Well-marked trails lead to the international mountain hut where liquid refreshment is plentiful and awesome alpine scenery beckons you to take a moment to enjoy the view.
