Easily walkable gravel road through colorful alpine meadows. The view of the lake and the surrounding mountains cannot be topped. The path can also be walked in winter and is ideal for a winter hike.

Hiking

From this easy-to-walk gravel path you can enjoy wonderful views of the surrounding mountains, the walls and peaks of the Churfirsten lying above you are particularly impressive and the view of Lake Walen always fascinates me. In this area there are many meadows and also a few benches (not too many) where you can take a break in the sun.
