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

Our circular hike begins in the center of Bach. Directly below the Bacher parish church, the Bacher bridge awaits us, which we cross to reach Elbigenalp. We follow the Lechweg and reach the main town of the Lech Valley.
Walking back, we get to know the Lech from the other side, we follow the Bernhardsbach down to the Nikolausbrücke, cross it and walk through the two hamlets of Untergrünau and Obergrünau. At the end of Obergrünau we finally meet the Lech again, which accompanies us back to Bach.
