Wir haben ein hervorragendes und lehrreiches Wochenende erlebt. Toller Bergführer, super Gruppe, schönes Hotel und sympathische Betreuung durch den Tourismusverband Achensee. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder. Wir hatten das zusätzliche Glück wunderschöne Fotos von Fabio zu erhalten, der als Fotograph unsere Gruppe begleitete. Sensationell. 100% Weiterempfehlung.
