One of the first priorities of the collaboration was his support in reopening the Dreiländereck mountain railway. For the region and Carinthia, this means an important impulse for tourism, leisure and regional identity. “With Daniel Tschofenig we found a partner who perfectly represents our values such as sportiness, authenticity and closeness to home,” emphasizes Georg Overs, Managing Director of the Villach Tourismus GmbH. “Together we want to show that Carinthia combines sports, nature and hospitality in a unique way.” Daniel Tschofenig is also looking forward to the collaboration: “I grew up in Carinthia, here I have my roots. The border triangle is a special place because it not only connects three countries and cultures, but also people from near and far.”
