Spittal an der Drau
A modest Carinthian town in western Austria where several alpine valleys converge — the Drau, Lieser, and Möll among them — Spittal an der Drau has a café and restaurant scene that punches above its size, sits directly on the water, and serves as the urban centre of Upper Carinthia. The surrounding Nockberge hills and proximity to the Millstätter See add mountain and lake access for those using the town as a base.
