Sustainable & responsible at Lake Achensee
Lake Achensee is a tourist destination committed to respectful and sustainable behaviour in nature. For over 15 years, implementing sustainable practices and environmental protection have been an essential part of Achensee Tourism's offer and product development. The revival of the Karwendelmarsch, projects such as the avalanche educational trail in the Rofan mountains, the golden eagle hike and all other nature-focused and awareness raising events and experiences are examples of how our region wants to lead the way.
