A charming natural swimming lake

Lake Afritzer See

Relax and unwind - with a view of the rolling hills of the Nockberge mountains. Lake Afritzer See is a crystal-clear mountain lake in Carinthia that offers swimming fun with drinking water quality for the whole family. Due to the adriatic summer climate here in the south of Austria, the 340 m wide and 22.5 m deep lake warms up to a pleasant 26 °C . Perfect for a dip in the refreshing water!

A walk on the idyllic Slow Trail Afritzer See is worthwhile in between. On a 4.6 km route, you can circle the lake at a leisurely pace and enjoy the impressive surrounding mountains. Anglers also appreciate Lake Afritzer See, as it offers ideal conditions for hobby and sport fishermen, who can pursue their passion directly from the shore.

Whether swimming, hiking or fishing - Lake Afritzer See is an idyllic natural swimming lake in Carinthia that combines relaxation and activity.

Slow Trails

Carinthia’s slow trails - beautiful footpaths that encourage walkers to relax and slow down - are, in the main, short but spectacular. The 14 slow trails scattered around Austria’s southernmost province are all sources of inspiration and regeneration. And four of these slow trails can be found in the holiday region of Villach - Faaker See – Ossiacher See.
