WALCHSEE

DIVE INTO A CRYSTAL-CLEAR ADVENTURE

On hot summer days, there is nothing better than a dip in the cool water! It’s a good thing that the alluring Walchsee is one of the warmest lakes in Tyrol and with a water temperature of up to 25 °C. Numerous lounging areas invite you to linger, play and swim. Strolling along the beautiful lake-side promenade in Walchsee is especially idyllic – even from there it’s possible for you to cool off at any time.

OUR TIPNo matter where you go, always pack your ba-thing suit.

WATER FUN GUARANTEED

Walchsee is like a big adventure playground especially made for children. In addition to splash- ing in the water, the Aqua-Funpark provides variety. With a trampoline, slides, blobbing and an iceberg, we guarantee you won’t get bored! Also, the conquest of the pirate ship at the playg-round is mandatory. A leisurely boat trip or a round of stand-up paddling are highlights for all ages.

OUR TIPIf you love fun and action, you should definitely try waterskiing on Walchsee.

ENJOYABLE VIEWWalchsee, flanked by the „Koasa“ (Kaiser) and situated at the foot of the Kaiser mountains, is the ideal starting point for your hikes and moun-tain (e-)bike tours. Nature lovers will discover rare treasures of flora and fauna during a hike through the Schwemm. Let your gaze wander over the pro-tected moor (Natura 2000) at Schwemm tower! As a golfer, you can tee off on our 9-hole golf course, while climbing enthusiasts can explore the climbing arena near the Ottenalm.

OUR TIPThe imaginative playground at Walchsee is a special experience for all ages. How about a very fast ride on our summer toboggan run?

„There, where a lake lies at the Zahmer Kaiser and its silvery waves roll silently.

On the beach, a village that bears its name. They call it happiness, whoever you ask.

That‘s Walchsee in the beautiful Land of Tyrol.“

– Walchsee Waltz — Music by Hubert Klier (1924 - 1990)

SCHWENDT

A red firelight glows before the tranquil landscape […]

Laughing, I drink my wine: When spring comes to an end

Summer will be blissful! Solstice! Solstice!

— Ernst Goll —

WONDERFUL SPECTACLE OF NATURE

Schwendt is a place to rave about: When you see the striking flanks of the Wilder Kaiser mountains shine fiery in the sunlight on a peaceful and quiet summer morning or when the evening light falls on the magical scenery, you will simply forget everything around you.

In this dreamy mountain village, there is nothing to distract you – no noise and no hassle. But the tranquil village is the ideal starting point for fantastic tours into the Kaiser mountains. Whether you choose a relaxing or challenging tour, you can expect a lot of peace and untou-ched nature.

OUR TIPIn our friendly accommodation you will be wel-comed with Tyrolean hospitality, and you can spend many comfortable hours with locals.

RETTENSCHÖSSI want to be on the mountains, closer to the stars,

closer to the moon and eternal distances, near to the magnificent firmament,

then the smiling Horae will appear to me and open the golden gates for me

to a second, better world.

— Charlotte von Ahlefeld —

BEAUTIFUL VIEWS

Rettenschöss has a great treasure: its incom-parable location with fantastic views above the Tyrolean mountains and its majestic view of the Zahmer Kaiser mountain range.

It is best to view this treasure on leisurely hikes through the pristine countryside. On the mountain farms and pastures you will discover pleasures with heritage. Because in these places, the people are down to earth – traditional values and warm hospitality are very important to them.

Don’t just enjoy the sweeping vistas, but also take a look lower to the ground – there are many rare flowers and herbs to discover here.

OUR TIPThe idyllic Antonius Chapel looks almost kitschy against the backdrop of the Zahmer Kaiser mountains. This is the best place to recharge your batteries and take a deep breath.
