Paseo rápido en bici de Villach a Ossiach

This scenic cycling route takes you from the lively town of Villach to the charming lakeside village of Ossiach, covering just under 17 km. Starting in Villach, known for its historic old town and bustling squares, you’ll start out mostly on smooth cycleways and quiet roads—perfect for a laid-back ride.

Be prepared for a bit of a workout: there’s about 280 meters of ascent, but it’s worth it for the views of the surrounding Carinthian countryside and the occasional glimpses of the mountains in the distance. Most of your ride will be on well-paved asphalt, with a few short stretches on gravel adding a touch of adventure.

As you roll into Ossiach, take a moment to enjoy the peaceful setting on the shore of Lake Ossiach, backed by green hills. The quaint village is famous for its Benedictine abbey and as a hub for classical music festivals—so you might even catch a concert if you’re lucky. Grab a coffee by the lake and soak in the Alpine vibes before heading back or exploring further!
