Reifnitz

Reifnitz is a village in Carinthia, Austria, situated on the southern shore of Lake Wörthersee, one of the country's most popular lakes thanks to its relatively warm summer waters. Part of the municipality of Maria Wörth, it enjoys a typical regional setting of wooded hills and lakeside scenery, ideal for swimming, sailing and lakeside walks. The mild summer climate supports an active tourist season, while the surrounding countryside offers hiking trails and viewpoints over the nearby Alps. Its proximity to Pörtschach and Velden, livelier resorts on Lake Wörthersee, means visitors can enjoy a wide range of tourist facilities while staying in a quieter setting. The region is also known for its Carinthian cuisine, local wines and summer markets. Reifnitz therefore serves as a pleasant base for exploring the lake and its surroundings, combining relaxation by the water with excursions into the neighbouring countryside, all within the peaceful, residential atmosphere typical of villages on the southern shore of Lake Wörthersee.
