The mountain bike tour leads from Villach through the Ossiacher Tauern mountains along secondary roads, cycle paths, and forest trails, offering many wonderful views of the lake and the Landskron Castle ruins. The tour is well signposted and only moderately challenging! From the Tauern Teich, you can head either towards Köstenberg or towards Lake Ossiach!

The waterfall is currently dry (August 2025), and the path leading there is quite overgrown. What a pity!😢

Challenging climb, absolutely not suitable for children and/or dogs. Extremely boring return, dirt road with no view.

The "Glücksfelsen" wellness trail leads to a mysterious waterfall in a secluded forest gorge. Here you can enjoy nature and the sound of the waterfall. A beautiful destination even if you are traveling with children. There is also a guest book in which you can immortalize yourself,
