Hiking
The Lech is a right tributary of the Danube. The 256 km long river has its source in Vorarlberg and flows through Tyrol and southern Bavaria, where it flows into the Danube. Shortly before the Austrian-German border, it takes up the Vils, forms the artificial Lechfall before Füssen and crosses Swabia and Upper Bavaria on its way. The largest cities on the Lech are Landsberg and Augsburg, where it receives its largest tributary, the Wertach. The river flows into the Danube at Marxheim.

Hiking
The Lech - once wild river, today forced to flow in fixed paths - flows through the Augsburg city area of Mandichosee (former barrage 23) in the extreme north to the height of Gablingen in the south.
It not only serves as a recreational area with numerous recreational opportunities, but also delivers the water for the numerous city canals from the high drain - an industrial monument of international standing. Did you know that Augsburg has far more bridges than Venice? This can be experienced very nice with a stroll through the beautiful old town ...
