The Wörthersee round tour (“Rundradweg”)
This is a popular trail that takes cyclists all the way around the lake, from the Seepark Wörthersee Resort in Klagenfurt via the northern lakeshore and all the way to Velden. The route also takes you through Pörtschach, the perfect place for taking a break. Stroll along the well-known lakeside promenade or take a dip in one of the lidos with fantastic views of the Karawanken mountains.
The route then continues towards Velden via Saag. Out of breath, or simply in the mood for a different means of transport? Then take the boat to return to Klagenfurt. If you’d rather stay in the saddle, continue along the Wörthersee Rundweg on the southern shore of the lake, via Maria Wörth and Reifnitz. The Lend canal will welcome you on your way back to the hotel.
