Area information

Our house is located in the far west of Carinthia in the village of Kötschach-Mauthen. Kötschach-Mauthen is located in the Gailtal at an altitude of about 700 meters and about 15 kilometers from the Italian border. You can enjoy this beautiful area all year round. In the summer you can go hiking, use the Aquarena with the indoor and outdoor swimming pool within walking distance or cycle/mountain bike along the Gail. In winter you have a ski slope close to the house that is especially suitable for families with children. The Nassfeld ski area (free ski bus) is 20 km away and the Lienz ski area is half an hour's drive away. Supermarkets and restaurants can be found within walking distance of the house.
