The second leg of our Tennis & Bike tour, part of our featurespecial"Tennis & Bike in Carinthia," takes us to the Parkhotel Pörtschach on Lake Wörthersee. This traditional hotel enjoys a unique peninsula location, boasting a truly exceptional ambiance, and not just because of its setting.

Stay tuned!

Why is Carinthia a wonderful holiday region for tennis-loving cycling fans?Because there are numerous fantastic tours for road bikes, gravel bikes, and mountain bikes. Tours of varying difficulty and length, including flow trails and cross-border stages, can be explored by our guests via the Carinthia tour portal. Cyclists benefit from an excellent network of paths, a mild climate, and a long outdoor season. At the same time, numerous tennis facilities in the region offer ideal conditions for a change of pace. This combination makes Carinthia particularly attractive for anyone who wants to be active both on two wheels and on the tennis court – all nestled within a breathtaking Alpine-Adriatic landscape.
Which bike tours can you particularly recommend to mountain bikers, gravel bikers and road cyclists? Do you have a favorite bike tour?Yes, the Krumpendorf panoramic loop. Beautiful forest paths, not too steep, very varied and with great viewpoints
And finally, the question of all cycling questions: are you an e-biker or still a bio-biker?Both 😉. I use a regular biker for mountain biking, it's just more fun, and I use an e-biker for gravel and road cycling to be able to go on longer tours or to keep up with my husband.
