Lech Falls and the Bust of King Maximilian II

Highlight • Waterfall

Should look gigantic, especially during floods. Immediately afterwards the river flows through a narrow gorge. You can see everything from the pedestrian bridge.

Obersee near Bad Faulenbach

Highlight • Lake

Lake Obersee is located in the Bad Faulenbach Valley, near Füssen. The idyllic setting features numerous hiking trails, a nearly three-kilometer-long lakeside walk, and a swimming pool right on the lake itself.

Alatsee south shore

Highlight • Lake

A small, beautiful lake in the middle of the forest. It's usually so quiet here that you can occasionally hear the fish snapping at flies.

Hiking on such a wonderful forest path is twice as much fun, isn't it? Just breathe in the fresh forest air and enjoy nature.

A very beautiful tour in glorious weather. Unfortunately, some trails are closed due to rockfall and storm damage. But it's still definitely worth it. 🤗🥾🥾

Today's tour went from Füssen towards Faulbach, past the Obersee and Alatsee to Weissensee and then back. Very great tour.

Magical!! The Lechfall really flashed me and the path (Lechschleife L9 "from lake to lake") is a beautiful circular tour with a high proportion of paths. On the way back - after we had left the shore path of the Weissensee - we unfortunately took a wrong turn and then walked to Füssen over very unsightly paths. If you stay …

Beautiful, varied route if the weather is too changeable for mountain tours. Today was the Alpine salamander's wedding day: you could take wonderful photos and had to be careful not to trample them. Unfortunately, part of the original route was closed. But we still discovered the beautiful rock gate thanks to a daring bike descent 🙂

We started with the turquoise-blue Lech Falls, then continued to Mittersee, Obersee, Alatsee, and finally Weissensee with its spectacular "rock gate."
A superb tour on mostly root-covered hiking trails, characterized by the idyllic lake landscapes.
We parked for free at the Reptile Zoo right on the Lech River.

We started today at the Weissensee and from there, the great forest path up to the Alatsee. I walked this path for the first time on July 21, 1990 and I like it every time. We circled the Alatsee on the north shore. I can recommend the restaurant at the Alatsee, only today right after the start it was too …

Does anyone have experience with this route during the current persistent rain? I'm wondering if the forest paths are very muddy at the moment...
