Mountain Hike

Probably the most striking and famous mountain in the entire region, it is one of the most popular photo motifs in both winter and summer. In summer, a steep hiking trail leads to the summit.

The Omeshorn over Lech Zürs... Many peaks are directly accessible from Lech and Zürs, but no mountain over Lech is as striking as the Omeshorn. The steep rock flank has to be circumnavigated in winter on skis at the famous White Ring, in summer one can reach the summit on the grassy backside. For this tour, a head for heights and sure-footedness is necessary, after rainy days, this tour should not be done.
