The clear, temperate waters of Lake Wörthersee lie in the attractive south of Austria, a region boasting a warm and Mediterranean climate. Velden is a popular, cosmopolitan resort town on the westernmost tip of Lake Wörthersee, a vibrant yet relaxed town with sophisticated shopping and a good selection of bars and restaurants. Inviting lakeside beaches allow full appreciation of the sunny climate, while an impressive lakeside promenade bustles with activity day and night and is the perfect place to stop for a drink at one of the many bars or cafés, and to admire the truly spectacular views across the lake to the Karawanken mountains.
Accommodation is also available in Pörtscach on the north shore of Lake Wörthersee, see Pörtscach Resort Guide.
