Car-free day at Lake Wörthersee 2026

On Sunday, the … April 2026 the roads around Lake Wörthersee will once again be clear for bikes, scooters, inline skates and more! During the car-free day, the B83 Wörthersee road will be closed for over 40 kilometers – and the asphalt will be entirely dedicated to soft modes of transport. Between Velden, Pörtschach, Klagenfurt and Krumpendorf, Lake Wörthersee becomes a car-free zone – a festive day for all those who like to get around actively and in a climate-friendly way.

Movement, encounters and lots of lake feeling

From 10:00 to 17:00, the route will be closed to cars – and open to cyclists, skaters and walkers. There will be refreshment stations, music, culinary delights and a program for young and old along the route. There is also a lot going on in Velden: the lakeside promenade becomes an action zone with a colorful supporting program, information stands and lots of enjoyment.
