Lechquellen Mountains and the Arlberg region
These mountain groups are among the most scenically interesting regions for hikers and mountaineers. Although a diverse tourist infrastructure can be found on the fringes of the Arlberg region, the Lechquellen Mountains are still largely an oasis of peace and quiet – making them ideal terrain for ambitious mountain hikers and climbers.
In addition to a large number of beautifully located and well-run Alpine Club huts, you’ll also find many marked high-level trails here. A hut-to-hut circular tour through the entire Lechquellen Mountains and Arlberg area over seven days offers alpinists an extraordinary and impressive mountain landscape – a truly special kind of experience.
