Carinthia, Austria
Millstätter See FKK
The Millstätter See is a deep, clear lake in central Carinthia — 12km long, averaging about 86m deep, reaching 24–25°C in summer. It sits in a mountain valley between the Nockberge in the north and the Liesergbirge to the south, giving it a more dramatic alpine backdrop than the flatter southern Carinthian lakes. The FKK section is on the south shore, reachable from Millstatt town and the surrounding villages. The Millstätter See FKK tradition is more informal than at Klopeiner See — designated areas exist but the lake is large enough that naturist bathing has spread to several cove locations outside the signed zone. The town of Millstatt is an attractive destination in its own right, with a Benedictine monastery and medieval cloister.

Faaker See FKK
The Faaker See is a small, warm lake near Villach in southern Carinthia, set against the backdrop of the Karawanken mountain range with the Mittagskogel peak directly to the south. The lake is particularly warm — reaching up to 27°C — due to its shallower depth. The FKK section is on the west shore, accessible from Faak am See village. The lake is surrounded by meadows and holiday cottages; the FKK area has a grassy bathing meadow and direct lake access. The Faaker See is also famous as the location of the Harley-Davidson European Bike Week rally in September, which gives the area a very different atmosphere outside the naturist summer season.
Carinthia, Austria
Klopeiner See FKK
The Klopeiner See is one of Austria's warmest lakes and one of its most popular FKK destinations — a small, deep lake in southern Carinthia near Klopein village, reaching up to 28°C in summer. The FKK section occupies the southern shore of the lake, with grassy meadows descending to the water. The Klopeiner See FKK tradition is long-established and well-organised. The lake is small enough that you can see across it from the FKK shore, giving it an intimate character unlike the large Carinthian lakes. The water is exceptionally clear — the Klopeiner See has some of the best freshwater visibility in Austria. Camping and guesthouses are available in the village and around the lakeside.
Carinthia, Austria
Ossiacher See FKK
The Ossiacher See is Carinthia's third-largest lake, sitting between the Wörthersee and Villach in the central Carinthian valley. At 10.5km long and reaching 24°C in summer, it has a more relaxed, less commercialised character than the Wörthersee. The FKK section is on the south shore, accessible from the village of Ossiach. The Ossiach Benedictine abbey — Austria's oldest monastery, founded in the 11th century — overlooks the lake from a hillside above. This combination of alpine lake swimming and medieval history makes the Ossiacher See a strong value for visitors in the Villach/Klagenfurt area.
Carinthia, Austria
Weissensee FKK
The Weissensee is the highest navigable lake in the Alps and one of Austria's best-preserved — motor boats are banned, development is minimal, and the water is clean enough to see the bottom at depth. At 930m elevation, it sits in a high valley in western Carinthia, near Hermagor. The FKK section is on the north shore of the lake. The Weissensee FKK tradition is low-key and the naturist crowd is typically small and committed — this lake rewards visitors who seek it out specifically. The surrounding mountains provide dramatic scenery; walking and cycling are the primary activities alongside swimming. Accommodation is available in small guesthouses in the village of Techendorf.
Carinthia, Austria
Wörthersee FKK Beach
The Wörthersee is Austria's warmest large lake, reaching 25–27°C in summer due to its depth profile and southern Alpine position in Carinthia. The FKK section on the lake's eastern shore near Loretto/Klagenfurt has been an established naturist bathing area since the 1970s. The Wörthersee FKK beach is a grass-and-shingle strand with access to the deep, clear turquoise water the lake is famous for. Klagenfurt, Carinthia's capital, is about 5km from the main FKK section. The surrounding area has camping and guesthouses; the lake is easily combined with a visit to Klagenfurt's old town. Cycling paths ring the lake and the FKK section is reachable by bike from Klagenfurt city.
