The Lech is a right tributary of the Danube. The 256 km long river originates in Vorarlberg in the Hochtannberg region at the confluence of the Spullerbach and Formarinbach streams in the Tannläger valley. It flows through Tyrol and southern Bavaria, where it empties into the Danube. Shortly before the Austrian-German border, it joins the Vils river, forms the artificial Lechfall near Füssen, and crosses Swabia and Upper Bavaria on its way. The largest cities on the Lech are Landsberg and Augsburg; in this city, it receives its largest tributary, the Wertach. The river empties into the Danube near Marxheim. Source: Wikipedia

When the trees are gone, it's a really nice, flowing trail.

Very overgrown in summer. Good to drive in spring and autumn☺️

The castle pond in Burgwalden is a picturesque pond in the Augsburg - Western Forests Nature Park, about 20 kilometers southwest of Augsburg. It was created in the 16th century when the Augsburg patrician family Höchstetter built a moated castle, which no longer exists today. The pond originally served as a water source for the castle and for fish farming. Today the castle pond is a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers. There are well-developed hiking trails around the pond that lead through the idyllic landscape of the western forests. The "castle and church tour" is particularly recommended, an easy hike of about 7 kilometers that leads past the castle pond. Near the pond is the Church of Our Lady and St. Francis, which was built by the Höchstetter family in 1513. Opposite the church, the Burgwalden forest restaurant invites you to stop for a break. The castle pond is not only a place to relax, but also an important biotope. It provides habitat for numerous animal and plant species and contributes to the biodiversity of the region.
