Lienz, Austria, is where Correy and I based ourselves for our first hiking expedition in the Alps. It's a delightful town, full of Eggers (an important family, an artist, a _____?) a great antiques market, and a parish that celebrated 800 years in 2004. Thanks for the great food and beer! It seems like the skiing would be good around here too, perhaps a bit more low-key than around Innsbruck. If my German improves enough, I want to move here and continue having great runs through the fields surrounding town along roads narrow enough to make me think they were bike paths. June, 2004. Thanks also to Ms Egger for not only allowing us to store goods at her guesthouse, but for washing our laundry while we hiked! Viele dank.

Geography
Lienz is located at the confluence of the rivers Isel and Drava in the Eastern Alps, between the Hohe Tauern mountain range in the north (including the Schober and Kreuzeck groups), and the Gailtal Alps in the south. It is connected with Winklern in Carinthia by the Iselsberg Pass. The neighboring municipality of Leisach marks the easternmost point of the Puster Valley.
By the consistent growth of the city, some smaller villages around – though officially municipalities in their own right – are now widely considered to be suburbs of Lienz. Those suburbs comprise:
