Klagenfurt am Wörthersee (German pronunciation: [ˈklaːɡn̩ˌfʊʁt am ˈvœʁtɐˌzeː]; Slovene: Celovec ob Vrbskem jezeru, Italian: Clanforte, Friulian: Clanfurt) is the capital of the federal state of Carinthia in Austria. With a population of 100,316 (January 1, 2018), it is the sixth-largest city in the country. The city is the bishop's seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Gurk-Klagenfurt and home to the Alpen-Adria-Universität Klagenfurt.
The majestic Austrian Alps stretch across the country, an awe-striking area of Ice Age valleys, verdant heaths and alluvial cones within Europe's largest national park, 700-square-mile Hohe Tauern. Taking in the dramatic cities of Salzburg and Innsbruck and the beautiful province of Tirol, home to spectacular skiing and hiking, as well as Gross Glockner, Austria's highest peak, and some of the world's best winter and summer sports playgrounds, the Austrian Alps are an outdoor lover's paradise.
