Mountain Bike Tours In Lech Am Arlberg
Lech am Arlberg in summertime is colorful, our rooms bewitching and mountain biking ecstatic! Even though there is the interactive bike map, we would like to point out three different bike routes, that we think are very pretty:
Formarinsee (medium) – the most beautiful place of Austria
(It a real thing! The area won the award!)
The Formarinsee is to be found on 1.793m right next to the Rote Wand (a beautiful mountain with a red rock band). It is also the source of the Lech River and the start of the legendary Lechweg. The bike is more or less 15km long and about 425m altitude gain (one way). For those of you that still have a bit of strength left you may continue biking all the way to Freiburger Hütte (1.918m).
Kriegersattel + Kriegerhorn (hard) – uphill
This mountain bike tour is short, but though. It is only 13km long, but you have to climb minimum 550m vertical. This tour will take about 1,5hours without having a break. You start at the front door of Hotel Lech in Lech and bike up to Oberlech from there you keep on paddling to Grubenalpe, continue to Kriegersattel and if those legs are not about to fall off you may bike all the way to Kriegerhorn at 2.149m. Enjoy!
- Any level, any ambition the Arlberg offers everything.
- Flow-trails all around the Arlberg.
Spullersee (easy) – right next to the most beautiful place of Austria: Formarinsee
You do not need to be a professional road cyclist to cycle the 15km and about 400m altitude gain (one way). The tour starts right at the front door of Hotel Lech in Lech and guides you along the Lech river (or road) through the "Zugertal" all the way to the deep blue Spullersee. If there is still a bit of strength left you could continue biking all the way to Ravensburger Hütte (1.948m).
