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.

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.

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.

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...

Der gut ausgebaute, fast eben verlaufende Weg ( 2 Strecken , 6 oder ca 8 km ) ist leicht in gut 60 - 90 min zu bewältigen und führt auf einem Damm am Wasser / Schilf entlang rund um eine Wasserfläche. An einem herrlich spätsommerlichen Sonntagmorgen ein Genuss durch die wunderbare Ruhe und Naturverbundenheit. 2 Aussichtstürmchen und etliche Bänke am Weg bieten Abwechslung und Rastmöglichkeiten.

This is a small lake south of Villach in a relatively flat area, not as scenic as other nearby. The water is blue and crystal clear. The major problem is that the entire lake had been cordoned out by commercial activities, hotel and camping and it is not accessible without a fee and there is no way to walk along the shores.
7. Casino Velden

Actually we had a real fun night at the Casino. With the Velden Basic Card which we received for free from our hotel we received a discount on the entry. Actually it was a package of entry plus chips worth € 30 plus one additional chip which you could go for a full number ("Glückschip"), plus a nice glas Prosecco.
I personally preferred it to the Casino in Vienna as it has a bigger main area and a round bar in the middle, where you can watch the different tables from. I even had the feeling that the average age of visitors was lower than in Vienna. As well the dresscode seems not to be as strict (lot of people wearing just jeans).
The drinks at the bar were nice, even all cocktails really good. And not to forget the piano player who was amazing. Just can recommend to go there for a nice evening out ...

Just west of Villach, in the rural countryside, is the Castle Wernberg Kloster, overlooking the Drau River. The ancient Castle dates back to 1575, when it began as a Benedictine monastery. It fell into disrepair and the Missionary Sisters of the Precious Blood discovered it, renovated it, and it is now their working home and farm.
Our tour and dinner were hosted by Sister Monika, the Singing Nun. She did indeed play and sing for us and gave a very informative tour, telling us about the monastery and the Sister's work there.
Dinner was supplied from the monastery Gardens and farm. It was fresh simple fare; home farm-raised chicken, and salads from their Gardens, fresh bread from their ovens, and fresh fruit from their trees. It was quite good.
The lifestyle for these 62 sisters [who, at the time of our visit, ranged in age from 45-97] is wholesome, simple, and filled with fresh air, joy, work, and prayer.
There are guest quarters for those who wish to stay and join the sisters for a few days.
There are single stall restrooms, which are very clean, and simple.
Free Parking is available for autos only in a gravel lot. By the front gate.
Make an appointment to tour this peaceful place.

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
