Pure nature. Enjoyable. scenic. This breathtaking and demanding tour takes you into another world. You will discover the mountain world around Lake Weissensee on fantastic rolling alpine and forest paths. The special feature of this tour are the four checkpoints on the route: You will find the stamping points at the Alm hinterm Brunn, the Techendorfer Alm, the Hermagorer Bodenalm and the Naggler Alm.

It starts at the Weissensee Haus bus stop. Alternatively, you can find a parking space directly at Weissensee Haus and follow the "golden" sprockets that mark the tour. You cycle briefly along the south bank before turning uphill towards the Weisse Wand. Don't forget to take enough breaks to enjoy the magnificent views of the lake and the Drautal.

On your descent you should be ready to brake so as not to miss the stamp at the Alm behind the Brunn. The ascent to the Techendorfer Alm is tough and you have earned the stamp break with a snack. There is a special treat for the experts: S2 and S3 trails cross your descent. If you are an experienced mountain biker, take the opportunity to surf.

You can comfortably master the ascent through the Bodental, past the former glass-making village of Tscherniheim, to the next stamp at the Hermagorer Bodenalm. You roll briskly down to the south bank, which invites you to jump into the cool water. Now all you have to do is the last, challenging ascent to the Naggler Alm. Here you get the last stamp and then roll comfortably, with the last views from above of the lake, back to your starting point.

No other lake in Carinthia has such color gradations between shallow and deep water. Absolutely worth seeing!

The lake is and remains the jewel of Carinthia! There are new surprises from every corner you go! Even "old" hikers are always surprised by what new things emerge on the shores of this jewel! 👍🏻

July 10, 2025,W14 - Die Goldtour um den Weißensee ⛰️🚴‍♂️💪
A challenging tour around the lake, with every possible elevation gain.

If you like, you can also register for this tour and then take home a mug as a souvenir. Details can be found on the Weissensee tourist website.

After completing the tour with my light e-MTB, I still had 130 Wh of the available 540 Wh left. The entire …

Since I don't know the area here in Carinthia, I played it safe for Tour # 2 and chose a local, legal classic. Unfortunately, this runs continuously on forest motorways, partly graveled along freshly cut slopes. The local ÖVP mayor has surely come up with it.

The highlight, however, are undoubtedly the alpine huts along the way.

A dream tour! Even though I pushed my bike over the Stosia for over an hour, I love this route, the most beautiful of all the lakes. The Kaiserschmarrn (sweet pancakes) at the Techendorfer Alm is highly recommended. This alpine pasture, with its location and extremely friendly host, is a real highlight for me.

Today the first holiday tour, around Lake Weissensee. There were so many great views along the route that I couldn't keep up with taking photos without forgetting to ride my bike. The two special highlights were the Naggl Trail and the Panorama West Trail. The Naggl Trail was better and flowier for me! The other one already had some extreme …
