I spent the past weekend with a mixed group on the sunny side of the Lech Valley on the beautiful Bernhardseck.
We started at the Jöchelspitze valley station. From there by train 🚡 up.
From there continue over the Lachenkopf, Bergheumuseum, then on to the Jöchelspitze. Descent over the Rothornjoch and over the Lechtaler Panoramaweg to the Bernhardseckhütte.
