Hidden on the very eastern edge of the Lienz valley is the sun-kissed community of Nikolsdorf - the easternmost municipality in Tyrol. "Welcome to Osttirol" is the motto here at the entrance to the village, right at the Carinthian border.
Nikolsdorf has the not unimportant function of giving arriving visitors to Osttirol a first good impression of the country and the people of "Alpine Tyrol". The idyllic centre and the north walls of the eastern Lienz Dolomites support this with their appearance. Nikolsdorf’s hospitableness does the rest to complete the picture. The main settlement of the cadastral community is the village of Lengberg, where the eponymous castle Lengberg is particularly worth seeing. By now restored, Lengberg Castle was first officially mentioned in the year 1190.
However, above all, its airfield makes the 887-soul community a special place among the Osttiroler communities. On a sightseeing flight high above Nikolsdorf you can look at the unique mountain ranges of the Lienz Dolomites, the Schober Group and the Debant Valley from a most special perspective. Anyone who enjoys the Osttiroler mountains like this will see their beauty in a completely different light.
The weather data is collected from the meteorological station in Lienz. The village Nikolsdorf is located 14 km from Lienz.
We are within the influence of what is known as an air mass boundary, where cooler air from the north meets warmer air from the south. The weather here is changeable. You should take advantage of the expected brief improvement in the morning to enjoy outdoor activities. Remaining clouds will thin out or turn into cumulus clouds. In the afternoon, the likelihood of thunderstorms and heavy showers will increase overall. So you’ll need to be very flexible. Temperatures will be cooler.
