Majestic heights, colourful mountain meadows and fragrant forests. In winter, this region is popular with skiers, whilst in summer, it transforms into a hikers’ paradise, an escape from daily life to recharge your tired batteries – Lech Zürs has many sides. In this Collection, we would like to introduce you to the one that reflects the sun’s glow and represents a special kind of power for many people.
We take you to crystal-clear mountain lakes, to energetically rushing mountain streams, raging waterfalls and bubbling springs. Over the course of 9- day hikes, of varying difficulties, you will experience the region’s diverse water spots.
Some routes start in the charming centre of Lech whilst others begin at the top of a panoramic gondola ride. Most of the hikes take you up to lofty heights, showcasing breathtaking views. However, some are more relaxed, with just a few meters of altitude difference and a focus on the culinary side of the region.
So, time to get going and discover the beautiful, untouched places around Lech Zürs.
