August 21, 2024,Der Lechradweg - Etappe 4 von Reutte nach Steeg: Wilder Lech, imposante Berge und traditionelle Kunst

Relaxed journey by train to Reutte station!

Then relaxed cycling uphill! More or less directly on the Lech, always beautiful views of the unbelievably wide valley in the lower part, left to the river. The incline is barely noticeable!?

Almost no car traffic on the cycle path!

One of the most beautiful bike rides we've done so far. The trails are off-road and consistently in very good condition. There are even benches for resting on the banks of the Lech River. Only the bike transport from Reutte to Steeg could be significantly improved. Aside from the almost one-and-a-half-hour journey, loading the bikes yourself requires two people. The …

Today the tour went from Steg back to Reutte, this time on the officially signposted cycle path, which was mostly paved. I have to say it was fantastically beautiful and it doesn't bother you at all that you look towards the valley. It was the nicer route for the bike, although there were more cyclists on the road, but it …

For us, that was the most beautiful section of the Lech cycle path. Very nice paths, long through shady forests and beautiful meadow landscapes. The path is very well signposted and is a lot of fun.

My absolute favorite the Lech. I have already walked many parts of the hiking trail and today I took the bike path to Ehenbichel. What can I say ... Absolutely well signposted, hiking and cycling trails are often separate so that you don't get into the enclosure, the underground is always suitable for cycling. Many opportunities to take a break …

Today we went first with the 🚘 to Reutte. From there, take the cyclist bus to the Lechtal, past Häselgehr, Stockach, Holzgau to Steeg🤩.
The Lech cycle path is very well signposted and mostly paved, only a few gravel paths, very nice to ride.
Another highlight was the suspension bridge over the Lech👍, which sways a bit when you walk …
