Today the tour went from Kötschach-Mauthen to Hermagor-Pressegger See. At the beginning we looked at a war museum. (Very interesting). Then we drove along the river Gail. Unfortunately it was raining and the views were not good. Then we stopped at a local museum, also very interesting.

The R3 cycle path to Hermagor is 👍signposted and highly recommended. Lots of benches for a short break and always a view of the Gail.
Of course you can also cool off well 🏊 ♂️.
