At the moment, there are still some open bookingsIn today's hectic world, hiking is more than just a leisure activity - it is an oasis of calm and a connection with nature that nourishes our souls and revitalises our senses.
And in no other place is this connection experienced as harmoniously as in the picturesque hiking region around Lech, a true paradise of deceleration and inner peace.
Just a few steps from Hotel Austria, you can reach Lech's marked hiking trails, which criss-cross the surrounding area like a network of possibilities.
But even for those who prefer a gentler approach, the nearby cable cars and chairlifts offer easy access to a total of 250 kilometres of marked hiking trails. The gates to a world of green meadows open up before you, criss-crossed by clear streams and surrounded by the wonderfully fresh mountain air.
Here, between the majestic peaks and the gentle valleys, you can treat yourself to a well-earned break from the stress of everyday life. Every step is an invitation to savour the moment, let your thoughts wander and take in the beauty of nature. It is a journey that not only moves the body, but also touches the soul and fills the heart.
