Ab in den Süden!
Grund 1
Such Dir einen See aus!
Grund 2
Für das traumhafte Panorama und die perfekte Abkühlung bei Deiner Radtour sorgen die vielen schönen Seen, die Du in Kärnten findest. Neben den vielen Erinnerungsfotos sind Millstätter See, Wörthersee & Co mit ihren warmen Temperaturen ideal für eine kleine Pause zwischendurch.
Genießen oder Austoben?
Grund 3
Hoch hinaus oder lieber entspannt? Im Kärnten findest Du in jeder Höhenlage abwechslungsreiche Rennrad- & Graveltouren für jedes Leistungsniveau. Mehrere Stunden flach an den Kärtner Seen entlang radeln oder eine sportliche Tour auf den Passstraßen der Gipfel - hier ist alles möglich.
Aller Guten Dinge sind drei
Grund 4
Im Dreiländereck von Österreich, Italien und Slowenien kannst Du innerhalb einer Ausfahrt ruckzuck die kulturellen und kulinarischen Highlights der Nachbarländer entdecken ohne das Flugzeug besteigen zu müssen.
Schmankerln müssen sein
Grund 5
Eines würdest Du auf Mallorca sicher nie finden: Topfenknödel, Kasnudeln & Kaiserschmarren. Überall findest Du während Deiner Biketour rund um Bad Kleinkirchheim tolle Hütten zum Einkehren und Genießen.
Por favor, mi amigo
Grund 6
Und der wichtigste Vorteil ist natürlich: Du brauchst Deine Spanisch-Kenntnisse nicht nochmal aufzufrischen. Höchstens immer besonders die Ohren spitzen, falls Du den Kärntner Dialekt schwer verstehst 😉
