Mountain hikes Bach - Memminger Hütte

Bach-Stockach / Lechtaler Alpen
Difficulty ratings: medium
Route length: 13.6 km
Duration: 5:45 h

The Memminger Hütte in the Lechtal Alps likes to be surrounded by water. There are three lakes in the vicinity - the lower, middle and upper Seewisee. We don't know whether this name refers to lakes or meadows. In any case, both are true.

Tour character

Popular hike to the Memminger Hütte (2,242 m) in the Lechtal Alps, part of the E5 long-distance hiking trail. The route leads from the Madautal valley through an idyllic high valley with grazing Haflinger cattle and past an impressive waterfall. The hut sits enthroned in a wide basin and offers a magnificent panorama of the surrounding peaks.

Equipment

Good equipment is essential for your hike. The following items should definitely be in your rucksack: - Food and drink - Functional clothing for rain, wind and cold - A change of clothes - Sun protection - First aid kit - Mobile phone with a full battery (Euro emergency number 112) - Hiking map or GPS - Hiking poles Nevertheless, the following applies: light luggage is also easier to carry, so you should not weigh down your rucksack with unnecessary ballast. In addition, your hiking equipment should of course also be adapted to your particular hiking tour.

Description

From Bach through the Madautal valley, you can either go on foot, by mountain bike
