Lake Weissensee

Lake Weissensee is famous for its turquoise, clear water and white sandy bottom.

As one of the purest bathing lakes in Carinthia, it offers wonderful swimming experiences with water temperatures around 25°C. Whether swimming, water sports, hiking, or cycling – there are countless ways to explore the lake and its nature park.

Tip: Weissensee is also one of the most sought-after diving spots in the Alpine region, with visibility of up to 20 meters not uncommon!
