Very nice in the evening by bike.

As idyllic as Carinthia's largest lake appears to the viewer from the slight hill, allowing one to enjoy the scenery, its origins are linked to a legend – one with a fatal outcome for the people of that time. A wealthy town is said to have once stood on the site of today's lake, but its inhabitants probably enjoyed a rather dissolute life. According to the story, the Wörthersee Mandl appeared to the wildly revelers – one version of the story places the event on Christmas Eve – as a warning. But since they refused to convert, the Wörthersee Mandl opened a small barrel he had brought with him, from which endless, unstoppable masses of water flowed – creating today's Wörthersee and swallowing the then town.

Magnificent panorama, crystal clear water. Beautiful for cycling around.

Very narrow, drive carefully

The Ferlach reservoir is the backwater of the Drau by the Ferlach-Maria Rain run-of-river power plant. It extends above the Feistritz-Ludmannsdorf power plant with the Feistritz reservoir. While the Ferlach reservoir is bordered on the north side by the slopes of the Sattnitz, on the south side it is partly higher than the immediate surroundings and is bordered there by a dyke. The waters that the dyke cuts off from the Drau are collected by the Little Drau, which runs along the foot of the dyke on the south side and flows into the Drau below the power plant.

The construction of a fish pass is currently being planned

The Ferlach-Maria Rain power plant was built between 1971 and 1975 as the third power plant on the Middle Drau (after Feistritz-Ludmannsdorf and Rosegg-St. Jakob) with financial participation from KELAG. Two Kaplan turbines generate 315 GWh of electricity annually from 100% hydropower.
