Equipment

Good equipment is essential for your hike. The following items should definitely be in your rucksack: - Food and drink - Functional clothing for rain, wind and cold - A change of clothes - Sun protection - First aid kit - Mobile phone with a full battery (Euro emergency number 112) - Hiking map or GPS - Hiking poles Nevertheless, the following applies: light luggage is also easier to carry, so you should not weigh down your rucksack with unnecessary ballast. In addition, your hiking equipment should of course also be adapted to your particular hiking tour.

Before the Alm, turn off towards Hof until you come to a fork in the path after a slight ascent, turn left there and after 800 m you will reach Hof. Follow the path towards Bach as far as the Bach/Elbigenalp outdoor pool and walk along the main road to the Grünauer bridge, along the Lech to the Nikolausbrücke bridge.
