En route by bike

Let the backdrop of nature at Wörthersee pass you by. You just need to choose the setting: taking things easy at the lake in a cafe, racing over hills, through woods and fields, or climbing like a mountain goat.

A much more than average amount of sun, countless watering holes and the incomparable sunny demeanour of the locals turn Pörtschach in spring, summer and autumn into a first class cycling paradise.

This year, Wörthersee starts the summer season with bike and action. The holiday region around Austria’s best known lake is kicking-off immediately by giving cyclists, inline-skater and runners priority.

On Sunday 26th April the route around the lake is guaranteed to be car-free from 9am to 5pm. This way you can go round the lake and enjoy it in a relaxed manner. This car-free Sunday has become an annual event that is celebrated by locals and holidaymakers alike.
