August 10, 2025,Etappe 6 - Lechweg- von Vorderhornbach nach Weißenbach

So close to the river –
First through meadows and slopes to Stanzach, the trail later runs through the intact river floodplain to Weißenbach.

June 28, 2023,🇦🇹Von Stanzach nach Weißenbach (Lechweg)

Today we made a detour to Forchach to change from the path along the river (and to hope for a stop at the village café), but the path presented to us didn't quite match the one indicated on Komoot and is not recommended - it's better to take a branch earlier . Unfortunately, the village café was closed at short …

July 15, 2022,Lechweg Etappe 6 / Stanzach --> Weißenbach 🇦🇹

On stage 6, the Lech really widens. This section of the river course is also known as the Lechzopf. The tour today always went near the Lech along, hardly any meters in altitude. End of the stage at the Weißenbach-Kirchplatz bus stop.

A bit monotonous and only becomes ok at the end through the quarry lake and the last few kilometers to Weissenbach....

July 23, 2022,🇦🇹 Lechweg 5 Stanzach - Weißenbach (Sa., 23.7.22)

Today's stage leads from Stanzach to Weissenbach mainly along the Lech. The first part of the path is the so-called Lechzopf between Stanzach and Forchach. Viewed from above, the course of the river resembles a braid, hence the name. From the suspension bridge near Forchach, you have a beautiful view of the wide river valley, in which the Lech is …

May 7, 2023,Lechweg vice versa Etappe 3: von Weißenbach nach Vorderhornbach 🇦🇹

Sodele, after a night in Wei Wei's hostel there was another day on the Lechweg. I knew this stage was flat, so I wasn't expecting much. Of course, leaving them out is not an option. Nevertheless, behind Weißenbach there were beautiful gravel paths through meadows. My highlight today was, in addition to the mountains towering all around, the bathing lake …

September 19, 2025,Lech🏞️/ Österreich: LECHWEG #2a/5

While yesterday we could find active hikers in both directions in the area of the "hotspots" of the Royal Castles and the Alpsee, today our hiking direction upstream of the Lech River made us acutely aware of what an oddity we are: we were clearly "swimming" against the current of the other active hikers.

How lucky are we 🍀
Stage 6 survived dry 😅✅

Since yesterday evening I had the smartphone with the weather app in my hand all the time.
Things looked bleak for our 6th stage.
We had a small window of time where we could try.
