Holiday on Ice.

Gliding silently across the lake

Far quieter than at  Nassfeld ski resort - but no less sporty - is right next to the Alpen Adria Hotel on the ice surface of Lake Pressegger See.

Ice skating: right on the doorstep at Lake Presseggersee

If the temperatures have been below zero for a few days, there is a 2.5 km long, perfectly groomed circuit at Lake Pressegger See. The entrance is at the Hermagor lido. There you will also find skate hire and changing facilities.

Of course, ice skating on Lake Presseggersee is only open when the ice is thick enough! Many hard-working helpers then quickly clear the curling rinks and ice hockey rinks .

Lake Weissensee - the largest natural ice rink in Europe

From December to March, ice sports enthusiasts, winter hikers and the occasional horse-drawn sleigh can be seen on the up to 40 cm thick ice cover.

Lake Weissensee is only 30 minutes away by car.

Another option for ice skating is the Radning natural swimming pool, 10 minutes away. The ice rink is open daily from 10.00 am to 7.00 pm.
