Lienz, with about 2,000 hours of sunshine, is truly a Mediterranean “sun city” and a magnet for culture and mountain lovers. With a breathtaking view of the Lienzer Dolomiten, summer in Lienz feels like a vacation in the south—even for the locals.
Numerous concerts and cultural activities fill the evening schedule, while a variety of hiking trails and mountain railways challenge visitors of all ages during the day. In winter, this sunny city also has plenty to offer! The mountain railways provide a comfortable ride up to the ski resorts for skiing. Thanks to our webcams, ski tourers, sledders, and snowshoers can also get a glimpse of the action right from home.
