View of the Lech River from the bridge

Highlight • Viewpoint

One of the few moments where you can see the Lech during the E5 hike. There is also a beautiful covered wooden bridge for pedestrians over the Lech.

At a length of 200.5 meters and a height of 110 meters, the suspension bridge near Holzgau crosses the Höhenbach Gorge. The detour here is particularly worthwhile when it is dark, because then the bridge shines in great lighting.

In contrast to some other spectacular suspension bridges, the suspension bridge in Holzgau is freely accessible and can be walked on for free.

Simms Waterfall Via Ferrata

Highlight • Climb

The via ferrata at Simms Waterfall offers three different routes of varying difficulty, from B/C to C to E/D. A must-do highlight for via ferrata enthusiasts. You can reach the via ferrata by turning left from Café Uta. Route C crosses the waterfall over two rope bridges. You can leave your backpacks under the opposite rock face, and a short test via ferrata route is available if you wish. Highly recommended!

Panorama Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Here the Lechweg leads on narrow hiking trails and stable wooden footbridges directly over the steep mountain pastures. You have a phenomenal view of the valley and the towering mountains.

A relaxing hike along the Lechweg trail to Holzgau. Accompanied by perfect weather, a stunning panorama, and the Lech River winding its turquoise, glowing riverside through the valley.

A must-do: the suspension bridge that spans the wild Höhenbachtal valley. The Simms Waterfalls are also worth a visit. There are climbing routes of varying difficulty levels across the rocks there. It's …
