This interesting journey starts at the base station at Annenheim (part of Sattendorf), on the shore of Lake Ossiach. Ample parking is provided for; an open parking lot and a multi level car park. Access to the "Gerlitzen Kanzelbahn" is free with the "Kaernten Card", otherwise prepare for approximately € 20.00 a head. The first ride to the middle station is in a closed gondola with perspex windows, which are made rather opaque by sticking advertisements on the outside of the gondola; furthermore, the perspex is rather heavily scratched. Picture taking is only rewarding by leaning out of the window. From the middle station the second ride is spectacular, being in open conveyances, hung from the cable. Don't forget to bring a coat. Arriving at the upper station, the views are stunning. Walking and hiking is rewarding; it is also a choice spot for paragliding. Going down is as spectacular as going up, with the additional prize that we got fortunately into a gondola with comparatively clean windows; so some spectacular pictures of Lake Ossiach could be taken. For catering I advise to bring your own. The cafés and restaurants on the middle station and the upper station are closed or offer unimaginative and relatively expensive "self service" buffet. But, generally speaking, the visit to the "Gerlitzen Kanzelbahn" was a day well spent with lots of unforgettable impressions. See the pictures I attached. To be recommended.

In this park, close to Landskron Castle (yes, on the same € 3.50 parking fee; drive to the appropriate parking lot) 140 Japanese macaques are living. Every half hour a tour can be joined with a tour guide explaining about the monkeys and doing some...MoreThank you Hendrik - I am sorry for the Parking fee - but I am not responsible for that - the Castle is the owner of the street...

Called in for a beer on our way down the mountain following a long walk. Great choice of drinks served in a wonderful setting. Really relaxed atmosphere and very friendly staff. May well book a room here next time we visit the area.

You can here again and again and experience the peace and quiet of this little gem. And DON'T forget to go into the church, it is amazingly beautiful. If you have the chance, take in a concert featured during the summer month. It's MAGIC!
Egal wie oft man hierher kommt, man spürt die Ruhe und den Frieden. Auf jeden Fall, sehen Sie sich den Stift Ossiach an, herrlich, fast umbeschreibbar. Im Sommer gibt es dort wunderbare Konzerte, es ist ein Erlebniss.

A single road passes through the Nockberge & it's usually closed once the snows come with a nominal entry fee.
Stunning scenery which can be enjoyed by drivers, riders and walkers alike. Lots of stop offs on the way to while away the time.
Don't rush it but importantly don't miss out on it

I was stunned by this unassuming looking place but when I went in I was amazed. The museum is extraordinary. The amount of time and effort which must have gone into collating the exhibits and in such an interesting and informative way must have been enormous.
Basically there were life size replicas of animals and birds from many different parts of the world and ranged in a way that you could see clearly what was what. There were also booklets with descriptions and so forth. Unfortunately these were only in German so if you did not read German you would be the worse off.
Outside there were live animals too - some you could even go in with. I found the whole thing fascinating.
If you are stayingh at a hotel you will probably get the Kärnten card which will give you free admission to this attraction and another 100 or so in Carinthia. An amazing value tourist benefit which cannot be overstated. If you do not get one free, go and buy it; you will recover your money in just a few visits.
Wonderful for children and adults alike and I guess you could easily spend half a day there and still have more to see if you really want to get stuck in.

So ein Tandemflug ist einfach der Hammer. Man fühlt sich wie ein Vogel in luftiger Höhe. Wir haben im Juni totales Glück mit dem Wetter gehabt. Es war ein Traumtag und Markus und sein Partner(habe vor Aufregung den Namen meines Piloten vergessen) waren super nett und freundlich. Wir trafen uns am Landeplatz und dann ging es gemeinsam mit der Bergbahn, die uns mit der Kärntencard nix gekostet hat, hinauf auf den Gerlitzen auf knapp 2000 m Höhe. Nach kurzer Einweisung und Vorbereitung ging es endlich los. Ein paar Schritte und schon waren wir in der Luft. Wir hatten super Therme und gewannen schnell an Höhe mit einer unbeschreiblichen Sicht über fast ganz Kärnten. Es war unbeschreiblich und mein Pilot hat mit der Kamera Bilder und ein Video gemacht. Man kann dies dann für 25€ kaufen, was eine sehr schöne Erinnerung ist. Nach einem tollen Flug( ich hatte das Gefühl von Unendlichkeit) landeten wir sanft und ohne Probleme auf der Erde. Ich hatte den Flug von Freunden zum 60. Geburtstag geschenkt bekommen und denke noch sehr oft daran. Wir haben beschlossen im nächsten Urlaub dieses tolle Erlebnis noch einmal zu viert zu genießen. Vielen Dank für diese schöne Vogelperspektive

Ontspannen sfeer, vriendelijke broers die samen het bedrijf runnen. Ik ben heel tevreden met de service en de vlucht. De foto/film optie is beetje rommelig, kan ook aan mij liggen was kortom niet zo duidelijk hoe of wat.
