Sun loungers and swimming jetty at Lake Achen

Highlight • Lake

Not only can you relax on the sun loungers or the jetty and enjoy the view, there is also direct access to the lake for swimming. The water is still very shallow here.

Lake Achensee is an absolute must-see. It's a must-see for vacations. There's something for everyone, whether hiking, on the water, in the air, or swimming. It's one of the most beautiful lakes, and its drinking water quality is excellent.

Dalfazer Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

The Dalfazer waterfall is by far the highest waterfall on the Achensee. Over 60 meters, the water plunges here in the depth. Especially after the snowmelt in the early summer, this is an impressive nature experience.

From a wooden viewing platform you have a great view of the waterfall. Adrenalin junkies climb the via ferrata right next to the waterfall through the rock face.
