Nature, art and culture, history, ancient monuments and modern structures – there's so much to explore by the Achensee.

The region contains a wealth of impressive scenes. For example, during the summer of 1957 two mountain-hikers discovered near Mount Guffert a north-facing open cave with Etruscan inscriptions.

Beside the western banks of the Achensee is the Alpenpark Karwendel – one of the oldest, interlinked, cross-border nature reserves in the Eastern Alps.

In Pertisau, you will find the Vitalberg Museum, where you can learn about the origins of Tyrolean brick oil and how it is extracted.

One unforgettable experience is a trip on the oldest steam-rack-railway and gear wheel railway. The approx. 7km long journey through the mountains from Jenbach to the Seespitz boat quay takes 45 minutes.

Tyrol's Sport & Vital Park offers you the perfect combination of fun, sport and leisure. Something to suit the whole family.

You can pick out of so many things! The choice of sports and leisure facilities in the region is simply endless. You will find the activity that perfectly meets your needs – on land or at the water.

But of course you don't have to go hiking or sailing. You can make a day-long bike tour around the lake or join the inline skaters on the beautifully surfaced paths.

The more adventurous may try (tandem) paragliding, kitesurfing, mountain biking, rafting, diving, etc.

And in winter? Well, that's evident – choose from superbly groomed cross-country trails (with quality seal), Alpine skiing fun on the pistes, snowboarding, snowbiking, tobogganing, guided snowshoe walks, and so much more.
