Klagenfurt’s landmark, the Lindwurm, has stood on Neuer Platz since 1593. After the city tour, which we usually offer at the beginning of each course, the first photo that our course participants take is almost always taken here.
The Pyramidenkogel, the largest wooden viewing tower in the world, offers you a breathtaking view of Lake Wörth and the surrounding landscape – an impression you won’t ever forget.
