Filial Church of John the Baptist on the Flattnitz: A quiet place of contemplation in the middle of the Carinthian mountains. The small church impresses with its simple beauty and invites you to a moment of peace and reflection. There is a beautiful playground right next door.

The path around the See is not suitable for everyone: slippery, roots, flooded parts, mud, but very beautiful!

Lake Flattnitz lies like an opal in the middle of the gentle forest landscape and invites you to take a long rest on the Almenwasserweg.

A lovely rest stop, especially if you walk the Almenwasserweg the other way around! Otherwise, this beautiful spot is right at the beginning of the loop.
