Haus Tilia Carinthia / App Spit Seal

The Spitzegel apartment is on the 1st floor of 'Haus Tilia Karinthië Appartementen', a former guesthouse from 1896. There are a total of 3 apartments in Haus Tilia. The apartment has a private terrace with lounge set and parasol. If you have difficulty walking, it is possible to continue by car to the terrace belonging to your apartment. This is an exception, to keep the peace behind the house.

The house stands on 4,800 m2 of private land. There are both sun and shade spots in the garden all year round. At the center is the beautiful large lime tree (Tilia). The garden also has several fruit trees. From the upper part of the garden you have a breathtaking view with 365 degrees view over the beautiful Gailtal, the Julian Alps, Slovenia and Italy. Watching the sunset from the rocking chair in the evening or starting the day there, that's really enjoying. You can always use the garden; to drink coffee, eat at the picnic table, sunbathe in one of the sun loungers or play football or badminton outside. Enough space! There are outside toys for the children. The large swimming pool is also free for all guests to use.

The Garden is also very suitable for yoga and meditation (you feel the power of the tree of life, in the middle of the garden, the Tilia).

For bicycles, motorcycles, skis or other sports equipment we have a covered, closed space that you can use free of charge.

Area
In the summer there are various festivities in the region. For example, the Feuerwehrfest, Kufenstechen, Beer Festival, etc. At these fun parties, people are dressed in traditional costumes and there is often live music. Everyone is welcome to join. In winter you can enjoy cross-country skiing, ice skating and downhill skiing nearby. The ski bus stops almost next to the house and takes you to Dreiländereck or to Nassfeld/Milleniumexpress. The ski bus is free to use, provided you wear ski equipment. Nice and relaxed!

Haus Tilia is located in a small, quiet village, where there are many hiking and cycling opportunities, directly from the house. There are also many nice trips to do, all within a maximum of 30 minutes by car. Some possibilities:

• At the Presseggersee you can swim and sunbathe on the beach, but there is also a nice amusement park for the little ones to go hiking or ice skating.
• Municipal swimming pool with slide and sunbathing area (3 minutes drive or accessible on foot). It is a beautiful walking route with beautiful views. You can also go here for ice cream or fries, for the enthusiast ;)
• There are several Alm villages in the area.
• The Garnitzenklamm (15 min) is a beautiful klamm/waterfall where you can go for a walk and enjoy the view.
• The Weissenssee (30 min) is wonderful for walking, skating or swimming.
• The Wörthersee has very nice blue clear water. Nice to cycle to, to have a snack on a terrace, to walk or swim.
• A visit to Velden or Klagenfurt am Wörthersee is also very worthwhile.
• Faakersee (25 min) is a beautiful lake where you can enjoy floating. Here you can rent a whisper boat and enjoy the blue clear water.
• Ski and hiking area Nassfeld is a 20-minute drive away. Here you board the Millennium Express that will take you upstairs. You can go back tobogganing or climb and scramble in the climbing park at an altitude of 1700m.
• Gerlitzen (30 min) mountain railway you can ski or enjoy the view and hang gliding in the summer.
• Italy is only a 20 minute drive away. Visit a leather market in a beautiful village where you can shop everything (and still haggle on the price).

In short, there is a lot to do in this beautiful southern part of Carinthia. For each his own. We are happy to give you tips.
