SUP yoga at Lake Achensee.

Have you ever tried swapping your yoga mat for a paddleboard? With SUP yoga on Lake Achensee, you practise asanas, meditation, and breathwork right on the water. The unstable surface makes every movement more intense, improves your coordination, and focuses your attention entirely on the here and now. Body and mind are simultaneously challenged even more, your core muscles are strengthened, and all around you a wonderful setting unfolds: the turquoise-green water, the mountain peaks of the Rofan and Karwendel mountains, and the glorious Tyrolean air.

The benefits of SUP yoga

  • A body that feels strong and good
  • Balance for body and mind
  • New strength and flexibility
  • Yoga with a good dose of fun 

Whether you’ve been practising for years or are trying a sun salutation sequence for the first time, SUP yoga is for anyone who wants to have a go at something new. Once or twice a week from July to September. Please ask at reception for the current dates.
