Illustration of City break in Villach

Railtour Suisse offers a two-day city break centred on Villach, a historic Austrian city where the Drau River flows through the old town at a crossroads of three cultures. The package spans one night and combines return rail travel in second class with a stay in a four-star hotel. Villach's lively city centre features markets, traditional festivals, cafés, and restaurants serving local cuisine, including the region's traditionally brewed Villacher beer. The main draw is thermal wellness: the thermal spring pool at Warmbad-Villach allows swimming directly above the source, while the nearby KärntenTherme spa complex offers an adventure pool and spa facilities. Winter visitors will find skiing at Gerlitzen Alpe and Dreiländereck, snowshoeing in Dobratsch Nature Park, and an ice rink at the Advent market. The package suits travellers seeking a compact spa escape by rail.
