Description

The tour starts at the forest swimming pool, more precisely in front of the forest swimming pool. The path leads along the river Lech upstream, past the Kneipp facility. Past the golf course and through the beautiful alpine country. Pass the Älpele and head in the direction of Spullerwald. After the bridge the path leads slightly uphill and we walk left behind the wooden hut through the Spullerwald back to the starting point.

Directions

The signposted path leads along the Lech upstream on the left, past the Kneipp facility through the forest. The path is partly rocky, grassy and always leads upstream, passing the fishpond and golf course on the other side of the river. The path meanders along the Lech through the beautiful alpine country. We pass the Älpele inn and head towards Spullerwald along the asphalted road. After the bridge, the forest path leads slightly uphill and to the left behind the wooden hut the signs point in the direction of Spullerwald back to the starting point. If you do not take the path to the left but straight ahead, you will come to Lake Formarin.
