Vacation in Obertilliach

Unique flair between the Lienzer Dolomites and Carnic Alps in the south of Osttirol

Obertilliach, a high mountain village in Tiroler Lesachtal on the border with Carinthia, is one of the most impressive cultural landscapes in the Alps. The village at 1,450 meters above sea level is characterized by its listed village center with traditional wooden log houses in typical Osttirol architecture. This distinctive architecture gives the village an unmistakable and rare appearance.

 

Obertilliach is the ideal retreat for people of all generations and interests. The tranquil surroundings and impressive nature offer both families and sports enthusiasts a place to relax and be active. It is a place that creates space and at the same time allows a return to the simple but precious moments of life.

Summer in Obertilliach

Summer in Obertilliach combines tranquillity and nature experiences in a special way. When the sun rises over the mountains and the meadows glow in lush green, a day full of possibilities begins - hiking, mountain biking, paragliding, leisurely walks through the surrounding valleys and much more.

Winter in Obertilliach

When the snow bathes the landscape in white and the clear mountain air accompanies the day, cross-country skiing on perfectly groomed trails, skiing in the family-friendly ski area, touring in untouched nature and winter hiking through snow-covered forests beckon - a real mountain feeling in its most beautiful form.

Tips for your fall vacation in Obertilliach

The golden autumn in the picturesque mountaineering village of Obertilliach enchants with autumnal colors in a breathtaking landscape. Experience beautiful autumn days in Obertilliach and spend a relaxing vacation in Osttirol.

This is another reason why the village is part of the "Austrian Mountaineering Villages" - in other words, part of those places that practice sustainable and nature-oriented tourism. The center of this clustered village is a listed building. Here, tourism and agriculture harmonize side by side, with hotels lined up next to farms, most of which also have state-of-the-art vacation apartments.

 

Farming has not lost its importance in the Lesach Valley to this day. The beauty of the landscape and the unique appearance of this valley are still largely maintained and cared for by the farmers. This pays off, as the high valley has always been one of the most beautiful in Europe and was voted "Landscape of the Year" by the International Friends of Nature and "Europe's most environmentally friendly valley" by the European press. Here, nature-oriented and sustainable tourism is lived and experienced, and hospitality in this valley is deep in the heart.
