Ski holidays Lienz - sports and culture in the valley for sun lovers!

Lienz

Lienz has approximately 12,000 inhabitants and is located directly south of the impressive mountain range of the Lienz Dolomites. The historic town looks back on a long and eventful history. In addition to strolling through the medieval town centre, which has been preserved to this day, there are many other cultural sights to explore. For example, visit the churches of St. Michael and St. Andrä or the Franciscan Church. Also well worth seeing is the 13th-century Bruck Castle, built on a hilltop, which now houses a museum. The town also attracts visitors with a variety of shopping opportunities and a large selection of restaurants and cafés. Last but not least, Lienz offers plenty of leisure activities after a long day of skiing, such as discos, bars and cinemas.

Lienz Dolomites

Actually, the Lienz Dolomites strictly do not belong to the mountain chain of the Dolomites. However as one part of the massif borders on the Dolomites, these mountains are commonly known as the Lienz Dolomites. In the centre lies the historically significant town of Lienz. The two highest peaks , the "Große Sandspitze" (2,770 m) and the "Spitzkofel" (2,717 m) rise up just south of the town and form an impressive backdrop. The holiday villages in this region are especially popular with families, due to their cosiness. Some natural monuments of the romantic Eastern Tyrol mountains can be discovered here, on one of the many winter hiking trails in this region. The ski areas attract the visitors with well-prepared and diverse pistes to explore, as well as breathtaking panorama views. Diverse leisure time activities promise an unforgettable winter holiday in the mountains!
