Natur Aktiv Park

Running and experiencing nature - two basic needs that come together at Villach Warmbad running & trail running arena. Through the spa gardens, past the Napoleon meadow, over hill and dale up the Tscheltschnigkogel, along the calming banks of the Gail or through the hazy mist rising from the warm springs of the Maibachl.

The exercise arena in the nature park community of Bad Bleiberg provides more fun with exercise. Running, walking and hiking and experiencing the beauty of nature at the same time. Six different routes have been developed for exercise enthusiasts and guarantee effortless orientation thanks to a simple colour coding system.

The "Bewegungsarena Ossiacher See" by Runnersfun is located on the northern shore of Lake Ossiach and stretches between Tiffen and Treffen. With a total route length of around 60 kilometres, the Bewegungsarena is the perfect place for anyone who likes to be active and loves nature.

For some it is a running circuit, for others a beautiful walking path. Many children have learnt to cycle here and you have direct contact with nature. Many also come from the nearby town of Villach to use and experience this gem. Klaudia Ottowitz, author and painter, tells us something about this path.

Are you a fitness enthusiast and do you like training outdoors? Then the fitness parcours at the Mountain Resort Feuerberg on the Gerlitzen Alpe is perfect for you. The fitness parcours not only offers a varied selection of exercises, its location at 1,800 m altitude offers wonderful views over the emerald green Lake Ossiacher See.

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.
