The destination of the Lech ErlebnisWeg, which leads from Landsberg to Füssen, is located directly at the Lechfall. The Lechweg begins just a few steps further, for those who haven't had enough of hiking.

Waterfall trail Nesselwang

Highlight • Waterfall

Impressive hike along the Nesselwang waterfalls. Partly over hill and dale. Very steep and muddy in places. There are a lot of steps to climb. But as already mentioned, very impressive. In the middle of nature!

Schlossbächel valley

Lech Falls and the Bust of King Maximilian II

Highlight • Waterfall

Should look gigantic, especially during floods. Immediately afterwards the river flows through a narrow gorge. You can see everything from the pedestrian bridge.

Large waterfall on the Nesselwanger Wasserfallweg

Highlight • Waterfall

The largest waterfall is quite far at the beginning. On the right side, you can easily go up it via a steel staircase. The stairs have quite a few steps, so you get to panting and sweating 😅
