Active Vacations
In summer there are various swimming opportunities around Lienz. The Dolomitenbad Lienz is the largest outdoor pool in the region and offers various pools and a 60m long water slide. The Tristacher See is a lake idyllically located in the forest, 4 km from Lienz.
The alpine meadows on Zettersfeld and Hochstein are ideal starting points for paragliders. If you just want to get a taste of this fascinating sport, you can experience a paragliding tandem flight over the sunny city with AIRTIME AUSTRIA.
Around the capital of East Tyrol there are many well-kept Fishing Waters. From the wild and romantic mountain streams to the calmer waters of the rivers out of the valley - 33 different types of fish live in East Tyrol, such as trout, char, pike, carp and pikeperch. Of great interest to true fishermen is the fact that "adventure fishing" is actually still possible in East Tyrol. Or where else can you swing your fly rod at around 2,500 m above sea level in emerald green lakes? Fishing day tickets for Lake Tristach are available from the Dolomitenbad.
