Day 2: Boat trip on Lake Weissensee
(Optional) You take an excursion to Carinthia, Austria's sunniest region. On a two-hour boat trip on Lake Weissensee, you can enjoy the view of the enchanting landscape. In spring the meadows burst into vivid green, but autumn, when the leaves change colour, also offers beautiful views. After a short walk, return via the Iselsberg Pass.
Day 3: Ködnitz Valley
The Kals Glockner Road leads through wild, romantic scenery into the Ködnitz Valley. From the Lucknerhaus there is a magnificent view of the Grossglockner, Austria's highest mountain. On a leisurely walk (approx. 1 hour), national park rangers accompany you through the blossoming Ködnitz Valley and tell you plenty of interesting facts about the wildlife, flora and glaciers.
Day 4: Dolomites tour
At the foot of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo lies Lake Misurina, one of the most beautiful lakes in the Dolomites. The journey continues to Lake Prags, with its unique location in the heart of the Prags Dolomites. You walk through a dreamlike landscape around this emerald-green natural jewel.
Day 5: Lienz - Strumerhof
On a guided tour with free time, you get to know sun-kissed Lienz with its charming shopping streets. Onward journey to the Strumerhof, which lies high above Matrei.

In the evening, enjoy entertainment from a folk dance group with dashing Schuhplattler dancers.
