Mallnitz: Auernig - Blick nach Nordwesten

Mallnitz has functioned as an Alpine rail settlement in Carinthia since the Tauern Railway opened in 1909. Set in the Mallnitz Valley within Hohe Tauern National Park, the community is surrounded by the high terrain of the Ankogel Group. The railway’s Tauern Tunnel, an engineering route beneath the Alps, made Mallnitz an important link between Carinthia and Salzburg. In warmer months, trails lead into the national park, while winter brings skiing and touring opportunities in the surrounding mountains.

Carinthia is best known within Austria for its warm Alpine lakes, especially Lake Wörthersee. Austria’s southernmost province lies along the eastern Alps, where the Drava River runs through broad valleys below mountain slopes. Lake Millstatt and Lake Ossiach provide further waterside focal points, while the rounded Nock Mountains shape much of the interior. Klagenfurt, the provincial capital, is recognised for the Lindwurm fountain on Neuer Platz, a long-standing symbol of the city.

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
