Lechzopf Tour - MTB fun around the Tannheimer Tal

Description:
The tour starts in Elmen directly on the Lech, where you can park your car. You start comfortably on a gravel path, with small climbs and easy descents.
You are often very close to the river and can observe how it flows in its natural riverbed. Depending on the season, the Lech is sometimes milky and cloudy, sometimes clear.
In Forchach, you cross the Lech on an impressive suspension bridge. Enjoy the view of the river as it carves its way deep into the alpine landscape.
You then head back upstream on a paved path. You pass the Lech floodplains and enter the lady's slipper area. There you can discover rare plants that thrive in the special microclimate.Directions:

It should be noted that there is an increased risk of accidents and injuries in mountain biking. Despite careful tour planning, there is always a basic risk. Tour preparation through endurance sports, appropriate technical training and advanced training as well as personal prudence reduce the risk of accidents and risks. However, please never forget that the weather in the mountains can change very quickly. In Austria, mountain biking is generally prohibited by law on all forest and hiking trails, with the exception of mountain bike trails expressly approved for this purpose. The entrances to forest roads are sometimes marked with no-cycling signs and additional information such as "No cycling". Hiking trails do not have these prohibition signs, but it is still forbidden to ride on them.
