Sunshine, Mountains and Culture

With the many hours of sunshine, the unique mountain scenery and the region's rich culture, Lienz is the perfect place to relax and enjoy life. Here Mediterranean attitude towards life meets stunning mountain landscape. Where else can you sip a cappucino under palm trees whilst at the same time marvelling at the steep, impressive Dolomite mountains?

The attractiveness of this region was appreciated as early as during the rule of the Ancient Romans who built "Aguntum" here, the only Roman town in Tyrol. Numerous castles, churches and museums tell of the history of East Tyrol. Many artists, galleries, living traditions and unique events make Lienz today a cultural treasure trove.

The Dolomites are often referred to as the most beautiful mountains in the world. Soft green hills and woods open into rugged impressive rock formations. Experience the Lienz Dolomites whilst walking or hiking, mountain biking, golf or skiing.
