It is elongated, about 16.5 km (10.3 mi) long and 1.5 km (0.93 mi) wide, and stretches from the outskirts of the Carinthian capital <a href="/wiki/Klagenfurt" class="mw-redirect" title="Klagenfurt">Klagenfurt</a> in the east to the bay of <a href="/wiki/Velden_am_W%C3%B6rther_See" title="Velden am Wörther See">Velden</a> in the west. Situated within the Klagenfurt Basin, its shores are flanked to the north and south by the foothills of the <a href="/wiki/Gurktal_Alps" title="Gurktal Alps">Gurktal Alps</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Karawanks" title="Karawanks">Karawanks</a> range, all covered with dense forests beyond which snow-capped Alpine peaks are visible. The lake's water is of a distinctive blue-green colour and transparent. </p><p>Lake Wörth and its basin in the central Carinthian foothills were largely formed by <a href="/wiki/Glaciers" class="mw-redirect" title="Glaciers">glaciers</a> during the last <a href="/wiki/Ice_age" title="Ice age">ice age</a>. The lake is divided into three basins by several islands and peninsulas.

Numerous brooks flow into the lake; its sole outlet is the <a href="/wiki/Glanfurt" title="Glanfurt">Glanfurt</a> river in the east, eventually flowing into the <a href="/wiki/Drava" title="Drava">Drava</a> (Drau) river via the <a href="/wiki/Glan_(Gurk)" title="Glan (Gurk)">Glan</a> and <a href="/wiki/Gurk_River" class="mw-redirect" title="Gurk River">Gurk</a> tributaries. </p><p>The northern shore is densely built up with the main <a href="/wiki/Resort" title="Resort">resort</a> towns of <a href="/wiki/Krumpendorf" class="mw-redirect" title="Krumpendorf">Krumpendorf</a>, Pörtschach, and Velden. The <a href="/wiki/S%C3%BCd_Autobahn" title="Süd Autobahn">Süd Autobahn</a> motorway and a railway mainline occupy the narrow space between the steep hills and the shore.

In winter, the region is often covered by snow and approximately every 10 years the lake freezes over, attracting numerous ice skaters. Lake Wörth's fauna is dominated by fish typically found in alpine lakes. The most common species are the <a href="/wiki/Northern_pike" title="Northern pike">pike</a> (<i>Esox lucius</i>) and the <a href="/wiki/Common_whitefish" class="mw-redirect" title="Common whitefish">common whitefish</a> (<i>Coregonus lavaretus</i>). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Etymology">Etymology</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=W%C3%B6rthersee&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Etymology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>First mentioned as <i>Werdse</i> in an 1143 deed, the lake's name originates from the islands in the lake, most notably Maria Wörth, a peninsula since the building of the Glanfurt outlet in 1770. Other islands are Schlangeninsel and Kapuzinerinsel; the former island of Maria Loretto is today also a peninsula. Until the 19th century the lake was called "Werdersee" (cf. <a href="/wiki/Old_High_German" title="Old High German">Old High German</a> <i>weride</i>: "island" or "<a href="/wiki/Ait" title="Ait">ait</a>"), i.e. "Island Lake", but also Klagenfurt Lake or Velden Lake (as in Slovene: <i>Vrbsko jezero</i>). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Tourism">Tourism</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=W%C3%B6rthersee&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Tourism"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Velden_Schloss_05.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6f/Velden_Schloss_05.jpg/220px-Velden_Schloss_05.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="146" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6f/Velden_Schloss_05.jpg/330px-Velden_Schloss_05.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6f/Velden_Schloss_05.jpg/440px-Velden_Schloss_05.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3008" data-file-height="2000" /></a><figcaption>Velden Castle</figcaption></figure> <p>In the early 19th century the marshy shores were home only to a handful of poor peasants. The opening of the <a href="/wiki/Austrian_Southern_Railway" title="Austrian Southern Railway">Austrian Southern Railway</a> line (<i>Südbahn</i>) to Klagenfurt in 1863, later extended to <a href="/wiki/Villach" title="Villach">Villach</a> along the northern shore, quickly turned the Wörthersee into an exclusive summer retreat for <a href="/wiki/Vienna" title="Vienna">Vienna</a>'s nobility and wealthy bourgeoisie. Especially Velden and Pörtschach developed to main tourist resorts. </p><p>Up to today, the Mediterranean climate and the clean, warm waters make Lake Wörth a popular tourist destination in summer. Although the region around the lake has been termed "Austria's Monte Carlo", in recent decades tourism around Lake Wörthersee has suffered from tough competition from <a href="/wiki/Package_holiday" class="mw-redirect" title="Package holiday">package holidays</a> to cheaper overseas destinations. As a response a number of local businesses have tried to focus on niches such as high quality tourism, family tourism or golf and horse-riding vacations. </p><p>Most tourists visit the Lake in the months of July and August when water temperatures reach 25 °C. A large proportion of visitors return every summer and some own or rent holiday homes along the shore.
