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

You hike from the nature park house along the varied panoramic trail to Vorderhornbach.
Now the beautifully laid out high trail takes you up to the Baichlstein.
On the way back, you take the forest path to the Hornbach bridge, cross the Lech bridge and then walk upstream along the wide goods path to Elmen. The last section is along the village road to the nature park house.
