Autumn Retreat in a Holiday Apartment: breathe deep, hike & enjoy together
Golden Escape in the Nockberge Biosphere Park
When the larches turn golden yellow, the clear mountain air awakens the senses, mist drifts through the valleys, and the sun bathes the peaks of the Nockberge in warm light, your autumn holiday in Carinthia begins.
At Feriendorf Beim Oswald in Bad Kleinkirchheim, you’ll stay in lovingly furnished holiday apartments with a tiled stove, fully equipped kitchen, and views of the forest and mountains.
Whether you’re seeking solitude alone, as a couple, group, or with your dog, or want to actively explore nature right away…
Autumn in Carinthia offers both: quiet forests, panoramic peaks, and time for yourself.
Autumn is my favorite time in the mountains. The days become quieter, the colors warmer, the air clearer. Guests often arrive with little luggage, but a noticeably great longing for deceleration.
In my village of chalets in the Nockberge, those seeking peace and quiet should be able to breathe deeply, enjoy nature, and recharge their batteries.

Couple Time that Connects in Late Summer: Wellness, Retreat, and Nature Enjoyment
When the intense summer heat subsides, arguably the most beautiful time for togetherness begins.
The days become quieter, the air clearer, the colors more intense. Autumn in the mountains gives couples exactly what is often missing in everyday life.
At the holiday village in Bad Kleinkirchheim, the day starts with coffee on the balcony, leads through rustling leaves, and ends in the sauna or cozily by the tiled stove. Perhaps with a glass of wine. Perhaps while cooking together, with regional ingredients and time for what truly matters.
And when it gets cooler outside, the thermal spas in Bad Kleinkirchheim invite you to soothing warmth and mountain views.
