A very popular holiday resort in Austria, the lake Wörthersee, is peace and quiet, conducive to relaxation and swimming, thanks to a water temperature than can reach 26°C in summer. And all of this is set in a magical setting, framed by the gentle hills of the Karawanken. Nearby points of interest include Pörtschach and its promenade, Velden, and the lovely church, Maria Wörth.
