Achenseeschifffahrt boat tours and excursions

Feel the fresh breeze and soak in the breathtaking view of the Karwendel and Rofan mountains while touring Lake Achensee on a leisurely cruise. This excursion is not just a boat tour, it is a wonderful experience that lets you truly relax and unwind.

The Achenseeschifffahrt (Achensee shipping company) looks back on an eventful past. Abbot Albert Wildauer, who had a captain’s licence himself, was the most important pioneer in the shipping sector. He commissioned the construction of a ship for Lake Achensee. The parts of the new ship were transported by rail to Jenbach, then by horses to Pertisau for assembly. The steam-powered "MS St. Josef" laid the foundation of the success story of the Achenseeschifffahrt in 1887. During the summer the boat tours run in conjunction with the Achenseebahn with minimal transfer times, making it easy to combine train and boat rides.
