From source to waterfall

The Lech – one of Europe’s last wild rivers

The turquoise-coloured Lech is one of the last unspoilt wild rivers in the whole of Europe. It lends its name to the Tiroler Lech Nature Park and the Lechweg. The popular Lechweg is the first cross-border long-distance hiking trail set against an alpine backdrop. It stretches 125 kilometres from the source of the Lech near Lake Formarin in Vorarlberg to the Lechfall in Füssen in the Allgäu.

It offers picturesque landscapes and legendary tales, passing one of Europe’s largest ibex colonies and a waterfall that, as if by magic, dries up every year only to spring forth anew. Crossing Austria’s longest pedestrian suspension bridge, it takes hikers all the way to the Bavarian royal castles.
