From Füssen to Merano

It’s worth wandering through the Old Town and visiting the historic buildings and nice street cafes. You could also plan a visit the royal castles on your arrival.

At the thundering Lach falls you cross the Lech Gorge and hike over the Alpenrosenweg to the Alpsee. From the viewpoint you have the best view of Neuschwanstein. Past the rock faces up to Sternschanze, where you cross the border to Tyrol and arrive in Pflach. Optionally continue through the bird sanctuary, up to the observation tower in the Lech floodplains to Reutte and by train to Ehrwald.

Hotel example: Hotel Stern

A wonderful alpine tour awaits you: on the Alte-Mühl-Steig you leave the valley and sail by gondola to Ehrwalder Alm. Take the ‘Koatigen Weg’ to Igelsee, where the highest rocky peaks are reflected. Leisurely hike through the Gaistal to countless alpine pastures, where you can take a break with buttermilk and Kaiserschmarrn (small pieces of pancake dough). Continuing down the valley, you reach the Kneipp spa by the rushing Salzbach stream.

Along the Weidachsee through secluded forests and moorland you travel along the Way of St. James to the crossing at Buchner Höhe. The view at the Ropferstubm is absolutely fantastic.

The final highlight is the Tappeiner Promenade: as if walking through a botanical garden, you reach the cathedral in the centre of Merano.
