- At the Magdalensberg and in the entire Central Carinthia region, cyclists of all kinds get their money’s worth. You can store your bike free of charge in our bike room and start your bike tour right outside the front door. If you need some electronic power, you can rent e-bikes directly at our reception and discover Carinthia in a flight.
Bathing
- Carinthia is the land of lakes. As diverse as the bathing lakes are, they all have one thing in common: their pure water and comfortably warm temperatures that climb above 25 degrees. Many of the lakes reach pleasant temperatures as early as May and maintain them up until the end of September. Lake Wörthersee, Lake Klopeinersee and Lake Faaker See are just some examples of refreshing get aways.
