About

Carinthia Alpine Guide publishes English-language guides to Carinthia (Kärnten), Austria’s southernmost province: the Gailtal valley and its neighbours, the Carinthian lakes, the region’s food and the mountains around it. The articles are written for visitors planning a trip, walkers and skiers, and anyone curious about the region’s table.

What we cover

  • Carinthia Travel: towns, lakes, valleys, getting around and when to go.
  • Alpine Dining: traditional Carinthian dishes, mountain huts, regional products and how to order.
  • Outdoor Activities in the Alps: hiking, long-distance trails, cycling, skiing and family outings.

Independence

Carinthia Alpine Guide is an independent English-language travel website. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to any tourism board, municipality, ski area, lift company, hotel, restaurant, hut, business or organisation it writes about, or with any former publisher or author of this domain or its earlier German-language blog. Places and businesses appear only as neutral, sourced examples.

The site sells nothing. It takes no bookings, reservations, tour enquiries or advertising.

How articles are made

Each article is researched from public, authoritative sources such as official tourism and transport information, protected-origin registers and published guides, and lists its sources. Opening times, prices, timetables and conditions change, so check them with the operator before you travel. Mountain activities carry real risk: articles are general information, not safety instruction.
