With an area of 55 ha, it is Carinthia's ninth largest lake, its max. depth is 14 m.
This lake is popular because it gets quite warm in summer and invites you to swim. There are campsites and also an adventure park.
Unfortunately, because of this, not much of the shore is left for hikers, and the moors

Since I had already made the trip to Carinthia, a visit to the state capital Klagenfurt was a must.
It is the largest and most populous city in Carinthia (just over 100,000 inhabitants) and is also located on the beautiful Wörthersee.
I chose a day with nice weather, on which I didn't want to circumnavigate

After having circumnavigated the Faaker See on foot, I paddled around on it a bit.
From the lake side, you get a completely different impression of the lake because you can reach all the shores.
Of course, many private properties have signs saying that you are not allowed to land and not allowed to enter

Today I'm visiting the southernmost and probably most turquoise lake in Austria, the Faaker See. With 220 ha, it is Carinthia's fifth-largest lake and has a maximum depth of almost 30 m.
The town of Faak am See in the southwest of the lake is the namesake. The

Before a rockfall, this lake together with the Feldsee formed a larger lake. Now it is almost 50 hectares in size and its maximum depth is 22 m. In 1970, the Afritzer See was declared a nature

Wörthersee is Carinthia's largest lake. Unfortunately, as a hiker, you have to go quite a long way around it for a circuit and thus accept some altitude gain.
Every descent to its shore requires an ascent again afterwards, so I ended up with over 1,800 meters of altitude gain in total.
Despite all this

This reservoir belongs to the municipalities of Hirschegg-Pack and Edelschrott. The Packer Stausee is fed by the Modriachbach and the Packer Bach flowing through it, into which the lake also drains, thus allowing energy to be generated by a run-of-river power plant.
In addition to electricity generation

This karst lake in the municipality of Tragöß-Sankt Katharein is located on the south side of the Hochschwab group.
The water level is highly dependent on the season, as the lake fills with water when the snow melts on the surrounding mountain slopes.
The green color of the lake is explained by the fact

My 4th participation in a Heldenmarsch, this time in Wismar.
The route seemed interesting, so I signed up. And I was not disappointed.
There was asphalt, but also forest and field paths, as well as paths along the beach. Great variety!
The Wismar Bay and the old town of Wismar are definitely worth seeing
