  • Directions

    Directly in the centre of Lech, at the Rüfiplatz near the roofed wooden bridge, you cross the road and directly next to the parking lot at the Filomena, you will find the start of the cross-country ski run. The entrance to the cross-country ski run is clearly visible from afar. Now follow the perfectly groomed cross-country ski run straight ahead, always along the banks of the Lech until you reach Zug. The cross-country trail leads over a hilly terrain through the forest. At the mountain railway station in Zug, just before the fishpond, you can either turn around and walk back to Lech, or you can follow the trail further towards Älpele inn.
