ACHENSEE WINTER HIKING PROGRAMME
This moderately difficult tour starts at the parking lot Falkenmoos. We follow the trail as it climbs to a beautiful viewpoint with vistas of the Hinterunutz and Vorderunutz. The trail continues in the direction of the Falkenmoosalm where the rangers explain how wildlife adapts to survive the winter. The return route leads past a deer feeding station back to the starting point.

The booking was a simple procedure. The hotel reception were able to help with any queries we had with the booking/payment procedure, although we did not encounter any difficulties. I would suggest doing more marketing with the local hotels in English. We stayed at the Wiesenhof Hotel in Pertisau and were aware of the walk because one of us speaks German and picked it up in a German leaflet. I know there would be other English guests who would enjoy a guided wildlife walk, if they knew it could be conducted in English. It was a simple bus ride and short walk for us to get to the meeting point, although we did have to ask locally how to get from the bus stop to the start. It was fortunate one of us spoke German but perhaps a small map could be added to the booking information to help non-German speakers find their way.
I would recommend this guided walk to all nature lovers and all who are interested in learning more about the area where they are on holiday. The walk description said participants needed to be of medium fitness but although, the walk climbed uphill and the day lasted a number of hours, the pace was very gentle. There were so many stops to see things of interest that there was plenty of opportunity to rest on the walk. This guided walk would be suitable for everyone, young or old. Manuel was a very engaging guide and people of all ages and abilities would enjoy learning from him. This walk was certainly the highlight of our holiday. Thank you, Manuel.
My main recommendation would be to advertise your walks as being suitable for non German speakers. We nearly didn’t book as the promotional material said the guide talk would be in German. Manuel had excellent English.
