  • Höhenprofil

    A challenging but incredibly beautiful run to the most beautiful course in Austria. You will be rewarded with flowing sections and a wonderful landscape.

    Along the Lech path we reach Bodenalpe. Steeply uphill we cross a meadow until we turn left shortly before the Bürstegg towards Auenfeld and Körbersee. First in serpentines, later flat it goes to the Auenfelder hut. You can also shorten the tour and turn again in the direction of Oberlech shortly before the hut. Or you can walk from the Auenfelder Hütte to the Körbersee, the most beautiful place in Austria 2017. The lake can also be walked around without a path before you return to the Auenfelder Hütte. Then we turn right in the direction of Oberlech. Passing the Skyspace Lech we descend to the cable car and back to Lech via a wonderful forest path.

    The Körbersee as the most beautiful place in Austria is a jewel in the landscape.
