Along the Lech path to the Zug waterfall

A pristine forest, a clear mountain stream, and a hidden waterfall await you on this picturesque walk along the banks of the Lech River between Lech and Zug. With almost no inclines, you'll be constantly accompanied by the rushing sound of the "last wild" Alpine river on this family-friendly tour.

You start at the Dorfhus bus stop. Upstream, you'll hike through the heart of the charming Walser community, soaking up the village's vibrant atmosphere. After crossing the riverbank, you'll gradually leave the village's traditional wooden houses behind you. With the scent of larch, fir, and white pine in your nose, you'll follow the rocky riverbed of the Lech.

Near Zug, you'll finally branch off onto a short, steep section. After a short climb, you'll be greeted by the soothing thunder of the Stierlochbach waterfall, whose cool spray and moss-green rocks will instantly dispel any tension – a true place of power that radiates an almost magical calm and energy.

On your way back, it's worth stopping at the Fischerwirt restaurant by the fish pond in Zug, which has been inviting you to rest and enjoy fresh trout since 1976. Lech is easily accessible by bus and car. With some water, a camera, and a desire to relax, you'll be perfectly equipped for this short stroll along the banks of the Lech River.
