A multi-centre holiday to Alpbach and Pertisau combines rustic charm and green rolling hills with dramatic limestone peaks and the dazzling Lake Achensee.

Alpbach was once voted Austria's prettiest village and it's easy to see why - the small village is full of rustic buildings and flower-filled balconies, surrounding by green rolling hills, meadows and distant mountain peaks with plenty of walking trails to explore. Pertisau has an equally beautiful but contrasting setting, on a gentle plain between the bright waters of Lake Achensee and the dramatic limestone peaks of the Karwendel mountains. Here, there's every flavour of footpath from lakeside strolls to challenging summits. Or, hit the relax button and take a leisurely afternoon cruise.

Our Walking Experts can tailor your trip to dates, durations and hotels that suit you. Depending on your chosen flight and arrival airport, holidays can be flexible by combining a 3, 4, 7, 10 or 11 night stay in each destination for a total holiday duration of 7, 10, 11 or 14 nights.

Alpbach is surrounded by meadows, forests and the Gratlspitz peaks - it's a village from the pages of a fairy tale. Wooden houses with flower-filled balconies decorate peaceful streets, while many of the surrounding farms have been run by the same families for centuries. It's one of the best places for digging into mountain food – just the fuel you need for hiking some of the valley's beautiful trails.

Pertisau sits on the edge on Lake Achensee - the Tyrol's largest lake - at the eastern edge of the Karwendel mountain range. Take leisurely strolls along the lakeside, hop on a cruise or take the Karwendel lift high into the mountains. There are plenty of walking trails to explore and activities from lake sports to paragliding.
