The beautiful Gailtal valley offers many opportunities for activities such as cycling, mountain biking, motorbike riding, hiking, climbing, SUP on the lake or long walks. Here is a brief overview of activities in the Nassfeld-Pressegger See region.
Cycling
The Nassfeld-Lesachtal-Weißensee region is particularly suitable for guests who want to explore the surrounding area and nature by bike without too much effort. There are more than 100 km of flat, mostly asphalted cycle paths in the Gail and Gitsch valleys, which lead through forests or along rivers and take you to dreamy villages. Our Apartments Schluga are located directly on the so-called Gailtal cycle path R3 and are therefore the ideal starting point for exploring.
Mountainbiken
Do you want to spend your holiday doing sports and getting to know the country and its people? Then mountain bike tours in our region are just the thing for you. Recharge your batteries on the numerous routes and then reward yourself with a stop at one of the mountain huts in our region. Whether beginner or advanced - there is a wide range of varied tours. Mountain bikes can be hired in the Bike Paradise near Hermagor.
Good to know:
We do not offer guided cycle or mountain bike tours - but we are happy to provide plenty of tips.
