Lochbach between Lake Mandicho and the Lech barrage 22

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

On the way are some decent potholes, which are to be treated with caution. Otherwise a cool shady place with lots of water, trees and some benches. Ideal for a short break.

Driving along the Lech to the Mandichosee is great. On the way back, other side of the Lech, more of a hiking trail with a lot of roots and stones where you have to push. The path there is very narrow and very close to the Lech. Very demanding in places.

Not much elevation gain but some nice flow trails. However, there are also a lot of pedestrians 🧐

A beautiful walk along the Lech with a worthwhile destination, in sunshine, strong wind and light rain.
The Brückenwirt is actually called "Gasthof zur Brücke"

@Wolfgang Ruf, thank you for this round!!!!
Was out with a friend here on the Lech near Kaufering today and did your round. A bit rough and seasoned with small stop and go because of fallen trees. Few pictures, because there are no stops on such trails 😎😂🤠

Yes, the trail stretches on the Lech are quick and easy 🤪 It was probably too fast and a couple of times violently descended. Sore fingers, scraped knees... drive a little slower😀😀
Then I caught a flat tire on the rear tire.
After 6 km everything was there that you don't need.
Beautiful trails on the Lech Endless driving fun😀 …

The first trail on the Lech. It makes absolutely no sense to ride in there, it becomes unrideable after 200 meters and the circular route is not overgrown, turn around and carry on. To the right of the Lech there are nice trails to warm up on😉
