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.

Description

Your hike begins at the Badino natural swimming pond and you walk along the local road to the Gasthof Kreuz bus stop. Now take the main road towards Hinterhornbach until you reach the turn-off to the Schröfle settlement.
You walk along the settlement, past a game feeding station, until the narrow path begins.
First you cross the small bridge over the mountain stream and then walk uphill in bends.
The path then takes you back down to the moss.
Here, at the fork in the path, take the forest path towards Baichlstein, your last stretch leading you up to Baichlstein on a beautiful forest path.
Your reward is a wonderful view of the Lechzopf.
