The largest lake in Carinthia gleams in every possible shade of turquoise. Klagenfurt lies directly on Lake Wörthersee. And when it comes to the beauty of the different bays of Lake Wörthersee, the east bay exceeds all expectations. There is something for everyone here, from secluded nature to culinary highlights.
The Lend points the way in the right direction from the old town: with an area of 19.4 km² and a length of 16.5 kilometres, in the east bay Lake Wörthersee awaits with everything you might seek as holidaymaker or a local.
The true beauty of Lake Wörthersee is best experienced outdoors. The varied flora and fauna and the diversified scenery and cuisine await you everywhere on Lake Wörthersee.
The immediate proximity to the Europapark Klagenfurt, the lakeside beaches in Klagenfurt, Loretto and Maiernigg, and the surrounding infrastructure make the east bay just as easily accessible by bus, car and bike as it is varied.
In the first few moments it can be hard to believe that there is so much going on here on Klagenfurt’s eastern shore – the countless leisure facilities on three lakeside beaches, the Lendspitz conservation area and the Europapark make the highly popular east bay a great spot for relaxation, fun and excitement alike – and for visitors of any age.
