Quality of living and recreation in the sunny town of Lienz paraphrases a unique ensemble with a multitude of recreational infrastructure, which makes it possible to practice alpine sports within a few minutes to just a short time later enjoy urban leisure pursuits. In Lienz, the Ski World Cup slope from Hochstein mountain leads right into town. In summer, kayaking and rafting are the name of the game on the Isel and Drau rivers, paragliders fly across the valley floor and climbers scale the rocks of the Lienz Dolomites. Mountain bikers can pedal up to more than 2,000 m above sea level. From Lienz, nature lovers can also explore the natural gem of the National Park Hohe Tauern on foot. Those who are interested will find a varied range of urban sports and leisure options with tennis, golf, track and field, football squash and climbing. The focal point of this unique sports and recreational experience is the newly designed Dolomitenbad in- and outdoor pool with its breath-taking sauna landscape. It combines sports with recreation, is a source of strength and attractive centre for those seeking relaxation. The unique geographical concentration of leisure and sports options combined with the South Alpine climate makes the sunny town a very special leisure experience – in keeping with the motto "Model More Enjoyable Living".
