The annual achensee-literatour Festival is going from strength to strength. Tirol author Bernhard Aichner is one of the key individuals involved in starting—and organizing—the Literature Festival.
The Festival is strongly connected to the scenic area and its people. With events taking place in unusual and weird buildings throughout the Achensee Lake Area, from an old parsonage over Alpine pasture huts to walks and hikes, the organizers of the 2023 achensee.literatour Festival have a unique opportunity to match locations and themes. This year’s Festival will be opened on Thursday, May 11, 2023, with a reading given by Dirk Stermann at “Entners am See” Hotel in Pertisau.
