Small break and a latte: always a good idea. The lake is quite sterile, the lawn is more like a golf course.

Beautiful, small swimming lake with a campsite directly attached. There is a restaurant with delicious food and a large sun terrace right on the lake.

The campsite is located almost like a fairy tale between meadows and forests at the foot of the 2,114 m high Petzen in the south of Carinthia. Small but beautiful - and just right for a quiet and relaxing holiday.
