Seespitz is the terminus of the Achenseebahn. The Achensee steam cog railway has been clawing its way up the mountain, snorting and hissing, for 1889 years. From Jenbach in the Inn Valley to Lake Achensee, it climbs 440 meters in altitude over almost seven kilometers. It is the oldest of its kind in Europe and is still working tirelessly. When she has reached the top and is panting and pausing at the lake, a steamer from the Achensee shipping company is already waiting. You can get more information about the Achenseebahn at achenseebahn.at

There is also a pier here. Here you can get on one of the excursion boats and cruise comfortably back to Achenkirch. You can find the timetables for the ships at achenseeschifffahrt.at/schifffahrt.

Alternatively, the public bus will take you back to Achenkirch. There is a bus stop just a few meters away in the direction of Maurach.

View of Lake Achensee

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Achensee is the most beautiful and largest lake in Tyrol - it offers phenomenal views and swimming opportunities all around. The lake is up to 133 metres deep and has excellent water quality. In summer it is totally refreshing: its water temperature is low for a mountain lake and hardly ever exceeds 20 degrees Celsius.

The Achensee is always worth a tour. You can drive from Pertisau to a wide variety of alpine pastures.

Seespitz

Highlight • Monument

Seespitz is the final stop of the Achenseebahn. The Achensee steam rack railway has been clawing its way up the mountain, snorting and hissing, for 1889 years. From Jenbach in the Inntal to Lake Achensee, it climbs 440 meters over just under seven kilometers. It is the oldest of its kind in Europe and is still in tireless use. When she reaches the top and pauses to breathe at the lake, an Achensee shipping steamer is already waiting.
