Lake Achen & Pertisau in Tirol, a bit of everything and for everybody something - Achensee & Pertisau in Tirol, een beetje van alles en voor iedereen iets. Lake Achen seen from the Zwölferkopf Thus far I’ve never been to  Lake Achen / Achensee , last year I drove by on my way home but the lake looked so appealing that this year I stopped here for a couple of days. Some facts . Lake Achen is a lake north of Jenbach in Tyrol, Austria. It is the largest lake in the Federal State Tirol, and has a maximal depth of 133 metres.

Kasalm Several hikes start at this point but are all marked red thus middle range, also climbing trails are found here. An easier hike brings you to a waterfall but unfortunately that has dried up currently. Gramaia...
