Built around settlements in the Vellach River valley, Eisenkappel-Vellach grew into a southern Carinthian municipality on the Austrian side of the Karawanks. Known in Slovene as Železna Kapla-Bela, it belongs to Carinthia’s bilingual borderland, where Slovene traditions remain part of local life. The Vellach runs through a steep, wooded valley before joining the Drava, while nearby Mount Obir is home to the Obir Dripstone Caves, formed in former mine workings. Its main settlement, Bad Eisenkappel, is also a spa town. Move on to other webcams in Carinthia to compare landscapes and settings around the Karawanks.
