Our village Tösching/ Tešinja is located at the intersection of three countries: Austria, Italy (45km) and Slovenia (25km). The region we live in is bilingual: we speak German and Slovenian. It is especially interesting for swimming and surfing (there are three lakes within a distance of 10km), horse-riding, hiking, climbing (mountains are, for instance: Karawanken, Karnische Alpen, Julische Alpen,...), playing tennis and golf, cycling (there is a beautiful, 366km long bikeway along the river Drau). Another lovely spot is the valley of Soča (70 km) in neighbouring Slovenia, a beautiful river where there is possibility of canoeing, rafting or canyoning. If you are culturally interested there is a variety of interesting offers during summer months in the region.
