Plan your family holidays at Lake Achensee
Looking for family-friendly accommodations, fun activities, and hiking tours for the whole family to enjoy? Lake Achensee is a fabulous place where every family member gets to spend fun-filled and relaxed summer holidays.
Family-friendly accommodations
The Achensee holiday region is a member of the "Tirol Family Nests" which offer top-quality recreational activities for families, including a summer programme for children and youngsters for a minimum of 10 weeks. “Family Nest” partner hotels meet the required criteria and are regularly inspected by experts, making them the perfect choice for families.
Kinderhotels in the Achensee region
Kinderhotels stand for fun, quality, comfort, and relaxation for the whole family. Member hotels must meet certain criteria which are constantly monitored. The mascot of the Kinderhotels is Smiley, therefore the category and standard of accommodations are rated with smileys instead of stars. Our two Kinderhotels at Lake Achensee boast 5 Smileys, which means that they offer top-quality services for families and excellent facilities.
