Bathing with mountain views - lake Achensee

Lake Achensee, situated at an elevation of approximately 930 metres, is nine kilometres in length and 133 metres at its deepest point. Known for its drinking water quality, it is Tirol’s largest bathing lake and, not only because of its size, affectionately known as the “Sea of Tirol”.

Sailors and surfers appreciate the excellent wind conditions, swimmers enjoy the accessible shoreline, and nature lovers are fond of the colours. The bright limestone rock causes the surface of the water to shimmer in hues of Caribbean turquoise and aquamarine. This is especially true in the shallow areas on the southern lakeshore where water temperatures reach up to 22 degrees Celsius in the summer months.

From here, the lakeside path meanders for nine kilometres toward the northern lakeshore in Achenkirch. Many exciting adventure stations and idyllic swimming bays invite to special excursions.

Achenkirch has a designated bathing area which develops higher water temperatures in summer. A large play area featuring a water playground, a pirate ship and an observation tower keeps children entertained.
On the southern lakeshore, Pertisau attracts visitors with two large wooden swimming piers and a viewing platform.
A few kilometres away the region’s multifunctional leisure centre Atoll Achensee offers a large water and sauna area and a variety of sports and activities.
