Cyclists can follow the River Drau for over 366 km. The source of the Drau and thus the starting point of the cycle path lies in neighbouring Italy. The source is located on the Toblacher Feld in the Italian Puster Valley. Just a few kilometres further on it crosses the Austrian border and winds its way through East Tyrol and Carinthia to Slovenia (Maribor). As a cyclist, you can follow the Drau nearly all the way to its estuary on the Black Sea, even though the cycle infrastructure is still work-in-progress in neighbouring Slovenia and Croatia.

  • Wooden Observation Tower Pyramidenkogel, Keutschach (A) the World’S Tallest Wooden Observation Tower Keutschach Am See, Carinthia (A)
    Wooden observation tower Pyramidenkogel, Keutschach (A) The world’s tallest wooden observation tower Keutschach am See, Carinthia (A) The wooden tower has a height of almost a hundred metres, and was designed by Architects Klaura, Kaden + Partners in Klagenfurt and structural planners Lackner + Raml in Villach. The structure has an elliptical lay- out with sixteen powerful columns forming a basket structure that spirals into the sky above the landscape as an immense and spectacular piece of sculpture. The structure has ten levels spaced at 6.4 metres, and two observation platforms of height 3.2 metres each, with a 360° view. The structure is supported by sixteen glulam columns reinforced by ten elliptical rings and eighty diagonal struts. At a height of sixty metres there is a windowed “Skybox” for visitors, offering an all- round view, which can be reached either by lift or via the stairs. The “Skybox“ can also be used for temporary events and happenings. Visitors can then go down the same way or use the spectacular slide that from a height of fifty metres will take them directly back to ground level: the longest slide in Europe. Rubner Holzbau in Ober-Grafendorf is producing the materials needed for the structure: 500 m³ of glulam timber, 1.000 square metres of cross-laminated timber and (in collaboration with the Zeman Company) 300 tons of steel, and will deliver all components to site according to the „just in time“ schedule. The structure will be erected by Rubner personnel and this will be done very quickly thanks to the high level of prefabrica- tion by Rubner Holzbau, thus completing the project in a short time (with the financial benefits that speedy delivery offers), optimising the amount of work being done at any time during construction and allowing coordination of all operations.
