In the summer, the huge Nassfeld ski area changes into a beautiful green mountain landscape where there is a lot to experience. For example, you can whiz down the Pendolino, the longest summer toboggan run in Carinthia. There are also numerous hiking and mountain biking trails for novice and experienced hikers and mountain bikers through the beautiful mountains and along the lakes. From the Pressegger See to the Weissensee, you can enjoy swimming with the whole family in the warm Carinthian lakes.

The Weissensee is extremely popular during summer.

But even if you want to do nothing and relax, the Weissensee is a wonderful place to stay!

Over the past millennia, the Garnitzenbach stream has carved its way into the rocks of the Carnic Alps, slowly but surely creating a breathtaking natural landscape: cascading waterfalls, green bays and beautiful rock formations are the result of this process.
