Breakfast in the "Wunderl" | stylish garden | lake.view
secret tips for your holidays
- Diving into the water at five thirty in the morning, while haze (in spring and autumn) and mist rises from the lake, the water feels like silk and everyone is still asleep. That’s nourishment for the soul …
- For sleepy heads there is still the sunset: Don’t miss this wonderful time! Hide on our terrace, snuggle up in one of our garden loungers and relish the view down to the lake! How it sparkles and glimmers.
- And here’s another tip for early birds: sunrise at the panoramic pavilion in the forest. Watching the Karawanken mountain range gleaming red against the backdrop of first sunlight will make your heart beat faster, promise! On clear days views extend as far as the Dolomite mountains. Talk to us and we will tell you the way!
- It is raining? Doesn’t matter at all. Make yourself comfortable in the winter garden and take a look at the lake and the beautiful shades of the sky. The air - delightfully fresh. The thoughts - so concise. And, look carefully: a rainbow!
- Discover Pörtschach: An early walk across the Pörtschach peninsula and your batteries are recharged… Flowers in different colors and shades with ducks as their companions. Everything else is still asleep. Leaping for joy is guaranteed!
- Our “outdoor arena” has it all and more besides! The beautifully designed multi-level terrace leads into the well-kept garden. Green as far as the eye can see! And blue, of course: Our garden provides the perfect view over the lake. Enjoy breakfast amidst oleanders and box trees – Mediterranean flair paired with Carinthian hospitality!
