Carinthia (state)

Carinthia (German: Kärnten, Slovenian: Koroška) is the southernmost Austrian state or Land; it is chiefly famous for its mountains and lakes.It consists mostly of a basin inside the Alps, with the Carnian Alps and the Karawanken/ Karavanke making up the border to Italy and Slovenia. The Hohe Tauern mountain range divides it from the state of Salzburg. To the East lies the state of Styria/Štajerska and it makes up a continuous valley with the eastern part of the Tyrol to the West. Its lakes including Wörther See, Millstätter See, Ossiacher See and Faaker See are a major tourist attraction. The main river is the Drau/Drava.
