Sailing on Lake Achensee
Sailing in the Alps? What might not mix well with each other at first glance turns out to be the "perfect match". Lake Achensee not only has the requisite winds, but the region also boasts a spectacular scenery. If you are new to sailing, you can learn the basics at Lake Achensee. Usually, the wind conditions are perfect for sailing, sometimes even challenging. The light southerly wind (1-2 Beaufort scale) in the morning and the strong northerly wind (3-5 Beaufort scale) in the afternoon require strength, coordination, and courage to manoeuvre boats over the water. By the way, Lake Achensee regularly plays host to international regattas.
The infrastructure at Lake Achensee provides sailing enthusiasts of all abilities with everything they need to get out on the water. At Lake Achensee there are sailing schools where you can book courses or lessons with professional instructors.
