Freizeitsee Aich is an easy summer gem just a short hop from Schladming. Nestled in the Enns valley, this natural bathing lake has everything for a relaxed day out: wide sunbathing lawns, a protected kids’ zone with slide, a small diving tower, and beach volleyball and table tennis for active breaks. The lakeside Seestüberl serves cold drinks, ice cream, and simple dishes—ideal for families, couples, or friends enjoying sunshine and mountain views.
Safe fun for all ages
Crystal‑clear water and a compact layout make this lake great for families. Little ones splash in the shallow area with slide and playground, while older kids and adults take turns at the diving platform. Jetties provide easy access to the water; clean changing and sanitary facilities keep the day hassle‑free. Alternate between sunny spots and natural shade from trees.

Stay active between swims
Beyond swimming, Freizeitsee Aich offers beach volleyball and table tennis—perfect for friendly matches. The lake sits close to the Enns Cycle Path, so it’s easy to combine a leisurely ride with a refreshing dip and a relaxed break on the lawn.
