Why do you think tennis and golf are a great combination for a holiday in Carinthia?Carinthia boasts excellent infrastructure for both sports, with high-quality golf courses and numerous tennis facilities, often offered by hotels. Both are outdoor sports, immersing you in nature and the incomparable landscape of Carinthia. Carinthia positions itself as an active/movement-oriented region, making both sports a perfect fit. Both can be enjoyed with friends and family, offering a fantastic opportunity to spend quality time with loved ones on vacation and meet new people, whether on the golf course or the tennis court. Tennis and golf combine cardio, strength training, and relaxation – guests can exert themselves with activity during the day, boosting dopamine (the "happy hormone"), and then relax guilt-free at the hotel, indulging in delicious food, enjoying wellness treatments, socializing… whatever you fancy. From tee to serve to complete relaxation.

The courses are also distinguished by their high quality; many are designed by renowned golf course architects and offer first-class playing conditions. Furthermore, the golf clubs in Carinthia impress with an almost familial atmosphere where hospitality is paramount. Another advantage is Carinthia's mild climate, which allows golfers a long season.
