Get ready for your off-piste adventure!

Plan your ski tour

In this article, we share everything ski tourers need to know: where to find the perfect accommodation, where to rent skis, where to book experienced ski guides, and how to get to tour starting points by bus and cable car.

Staying safe

Lake Achensee boasts a huge range of designated ski touring routes. For your safety and the safety of other skiers, be sure to plan your outdoor activities carefully, especially when heading into the backcountry. Get the knowledge and follow the rules to minimize your exposure to risk.

Detailed tour planning requires an understanding of avalanche formation and the ability to interpret avalanche reports.

Accommodations

The Achensee holiday region offers accommodations to suit everyone: inns, pensions, holiday apartments, farm-stay holidays, and hotels from budget to 5-star. There are also five campsites in the region which are open in winter.
