High above
No other leisure activity combines the love of nature and the joy of movement as harmoniously as hiking. The hiking area around Lech is a paradise for this form of slow-paced holidays.
From Hotel Austria, it is only a few steps to the marked hiking trails of Lech.
The nearby cable cars and chair lifts also offer easy access to the 250 km of marked hiking trails. Green meadows and wonderfully fresh mountain air – here, you can certainly take a nice break from the stress of everyday life.
✼ The Austria hikes are included in the room or apartment price.
✼ For all hiking activities you can rent hiking poles and purchase backpacks from us.
Herb Hike
Whether sage, silver mantle or Autumn gentian – in spring and summer beautiful Alpine and wild herbs line the alpine meadows and transform them into an aromatic sea of blossoms for the senses! On the hiking trail from Oberlech to Bürstegg, there is a special diversity of different herbs to see – and of course to smell and taste!
On Veronika’s herbal walks (once a week) and in the workshops she passes on old and new knowledge.
