About Weissensee Lake

When we hear the word - the beach, in the head arises one established association - sea, sand and relax. But who says the sea has a monopoly on vacation? Often the lakes attract no less than the sea, and in some cases even more tourists than the seaside. Weissensee Lake can be attributed to this.

Some general information about Weissensee Lake. It is located in Austria (Carinthia) and Italy (Friuli Venezia Giulia), total area - 6.5 km², the maximum depth is 97 meters.

The coast of Weissensee Lake is a real find for lovers of saturated turquoise water, and even these places are not traditionally famous for memorable landscapes - your vacation certainly won’t be any worse!

It is dominated by grassy beaches, that primarily located within the settlements. Perhaps that is why Weissensee Lake is popular among travelers.

The coastline of Weissensee Lake is mostly straight, but the absence of winding shapes is compensated by the abundance of natural vegetation that is often present in the region. This vegetation creates a natural shadow that protects vacationers from the sun’s heat on hot days. These can be either rare trees or even dense forest areas, and it is important to be able to find them.

There are no secluded beaches here. So if you are looking beach holidays outside the hustle and bustle of the city, the coast of Weissensee Lake is probably not your option.

Strandbad Stockenboi

This place is truly perfect! I paid €4.50 to get in. The facilities were very clean and the water is incredibly blue! Since you can only access this spot by car, there aren't many tourists. There is also a simple hiking trail that goes all around the lake.

Freibad Weissensee

10 Marina Sorenson

This lake is absolutely stunning! The water is crystal clear and has a mesmerizing turquoise blue color. There are even areas where the water appears white, which is why it's called that. It's truly breathtaking! I had to pay €4.50 to access the beach.
