Afritz am See, Carinthia

A quiet wooden house between lake and mountains

Chalet Mirnockblick is our own chalet for six at the DualResorts park in Afritz am See, a short walk from the Afritzer See.

In summer the lake is a ten-minute stroll from the door. In winter the sauna is warm and four ski areas wait within a short drive.

Built from larch, stone and calm

The chalet sits in a small, quiet holiday park in the Gegendtal valley, surrounded by the wooded slopes of the Nockberge.

Inside, warm timber walls and large windows carry the landscape through the whole house: an open kitchen and dining room on the ground floor, three bedrooms for up to six guests, and a private sauna for slow evenings after a day on the trails or the slopes.

The house is owned by a single family, not by an anonymous chain. We and the park’s managers look after the house ourselves; Villa for You handles the letting and sends guests the practical information for their stay.

Warm up, then step outside

The two small luxuries that shape a day here: a private sauna after a hike or a day on the slopes, and a covered terrace facing the green valley.

Through the year

One valley, four seasons

The Afritzer See and the Nockberge mountains set the rhythm: swimming and slow trails in summer, snow and skiing in the region in winter.

Lake Brennsee, just 2 km away, often freezes over enough in cold winters to allow ice skating.

Four ski areas within a short drive

Gerlitzen and Bad Kleinkirchheim sit closest to the valley; Heidialm and Turracher Höhe are worth the extra half hour. Ski storage and boot warmers wait at the house.

Location

Questions guests ask

The practical answers, before you need to ask. Anything the calendar cannot tell you goes to DualResorts, who manage the rental for us.

Six, in three bedrooms: two doubles of 180 × 200 cm upstairs and a ground-floor room with a 160 × 200 cm sofa bed and its own smart TV.

Can we bring our dog?

Up to two pets are welcome. The garden is open and not fenced, and the whole house is non-smoking.

How far is the lake really?

The Afritzer See, the lido and the 4.6 km Slow Trail are all just a short walk from the park; in the height of summer, the lake reaches a temperature of around 26 °C.

Where do we ski?

No. Charging at the property is not (yet) possible and is not permitted; there is one private parking space for a standard car.

Is there Wi-Fi?

Yes, free Wi-Fi throughout the house, plus a dining table for six that doubles happily as a workspace with a valley view.

How do we book?

Can we come without a car?

Puch bei Villach station is 17 km away, but the easiest way to get around the valley is by car, especially for days spent skiing or hiking and for visiting the larger lakes.
