Hiking high above Lech

Today, Peter drove us to Lech, Austria, a destination often compared to the prestigious St. Moritz in Switzerland.

We started by taking a gondola up to Oberlech, followed by a chairlift to Petersboden, where our hike began.

The ascent to Kriegeralpe was a gentle climb along a pleasant gravel road, and we couldn’t resist stopping at the alp restaurant to indulge in a delicious prune tart topped with whipped cream. The weather was ideal—sunny with a few clouds and temperatures in the 60s—perfect for hiking.

Afterward, we hiked for another hour, reaching a stunning viewpoint before splitting into two groups. One group made their way back down to Lech, while the more adventurous hikers continued to Buzensee before looping back to meet everyone in Lech. The hike once again offered breathtaking views of the valleys below and the surrounding mountains.

Dinner tonight was at Romantikhus, where we enjoyed the best culinary experience we've had in Brand so far—a generous treat from our friends Bernhard and Elisabeth.Læs mere
