The idyllic town of Achenkirch lies at an altitude of 916 m and is made up of many scattered districts. Located at the northern opening to Lake Achen, the gorgeous view offers a look at the mountains and one of Tyrol's largest lakes. The amazing ski area, one of Europe's largest enclosed conservation areas, the "Karwendal", is waiting to be discovered. Besides snow bikes and tobogganing, the possibility to try snow golf is also available.

Those looking for romance shouldn't miss the horse-drawn carriage rides through the sparkling snowy landscape. Culinary highlights can be found in the first-class restaurants after an exciting day.

The region around Achensee distinguishes itself from the other après ski resorts by its tranquility and lovely natural surroundings. The huts in the ski area invite the winter sports fans to turn in, but otherwise the days rather come to a cosy and relaxing end. A typical Tyrolean evening can be enjoyed with selected foods and drink, music, entertainment and concerts. Those who still can't miss out on a bit of fun, can drop by the Saletti-Bar at the Christlum valley station or take part in après ski at the umbrella bar. Furthermore there are numerous winter hiking trails available all around Lake Achen and also the toboggan run promises action way into the evening. Achenkirch also offers snow tubing as well as indoor tennis and squash courts, a riding hall and an indoor pool.
