Sillian in summer

Adventure, Relaxation, & Pure Alpine Air

Strolling, hiking, mountaineering: here everything is possible. Whether you want to go on one of the easier circular walks, a cross-border hike or more difficult mountain climbs. There are many hiking opportunities – be it directly from us in Sillian, in neighboring South Tyrol or in one of our beautiful side valleys, such as the “Villgratental”, with its beautiful, rustic alpine huts.

If you’re travelling with children we have a very special hint for you, which will make their little hearts beat faster: the adventure park “Wichtelpark” with many attractions like minigolf, a gnome train, a high rope course and many more. It’s a place where young and old will feel great. Moreover, the wildlife park in Assling is a very special destination for families, where native animals can be admired. There’s also a summer toboggan run, like those in Innichen and Lienz, guaranteeing fun for the whole family.

Several mountain railways in close vicinity will bring you comfortably to our wonderful mountain world. Linger a little and enjoy the nature or go for a mountain hike in this picturesque landscape. Once a week during summer a special family day takes place at the mountains.

The perfectly prepared “Drauradweg” (a cycle path along the Drava river) goes right past us. You can cycle along the river to Lienz and return comfortable to Sillian by train – an excursion for the whole family. Mountain bikers also find several tracks. A special challenge is the Stoneman-trail with a length of 120 kilometers and 4.000 meters of altitude difference.

For culture enthusiasts there are several sights and smaller museums (carriage museum in Obertilliach, Wurzerhof Außervillgraten,…) that can be visited. In the summer months also many traditional festivities take place.
