Gerlitzen – Summer

It’s beautiful there on the mountain

Gerlitzen is located next to Villach and it is 1900m above the sea level. From the top you will have a spectacular scenery over the lakes, far away to the mountains behind. Because the place has so much to offer both in winter and summer we decided to make two different parts; summer and winter.

The easiest way to get up is by the cable car. There are plenty of parking space: https://www.gerlitzen.com/en/info/parkplatz/

Driving by car you have two options:

1. Gerlitzen Alpine road starts from Bodensdorf (near Ossiacher sea) and it is 12km long. The road is quite narrow, has a stunning view and its parking place is located at 1800m above sea level. Gradient is 10-13%. Quite near the top there is a maut place. While arriving you will get a card from the barrier and when you drive down, you must pay the toll 8€. There is an automat where you can pay by cash or card.
2. Gerlitzenstrasse starts from the village of  Treffen am Ossiachersee and it is 9km long. The toll is 8€  and it will be paid same way as mentioned above. The parking place is located 1500m above sea level. This is also a nice road but we recommend the option one, especially in the summer.
