Original description from Marco

Hahlekopf. You probably never heard of it! A not very well known peak with a great view, that's exactly what makes this mountain hike so attractive. We start our hike in Pflach near Reutte, part of the Tiroler Lech Nature Park. Here there is a bird adventure trail with a 17 m high wooden observation tower. From the tower you have a fantastic view over the treetops, to the Reutte basin and over the animal habitats, and in the distance Ehrenberg and Schlossberg castle ruins, before you continue along numerous ponds, a paradise for insects and breeding grounds for many bird species, to the junction, an old fortification wall Lech. The 17m high bird tower is a project of the LIFE project "Tirolean Lech Wild River Landscape" and was built on behalf of the community near the industrial area in Pflach.  We proceed along the Lech and we cross it to catch the high altitude panorama trail bringing us first to Kostaries Kapelle, a beautiful vantage point above Wängle with great views towards the Lechtal Alps. From the Kostaries chapel, continue to follow the signs towards Musauer Alm. You will pass the Sulztaler Hütte, keep right here and reach the Hahlealm with a magnificent view of the walls of the Gehrenspitze. After overcoming a steep meadow slope, you find yourself in front of the Schaller Kapelle. When climbing to the Schaller Kapelle, however, your eyes are constantly glued to the beautiful and impressive eastern ridge to the Gehrenspitze. At the chapel there is a sign pointing right to Hahlekopf. the previous path was easy, the transition is a little more challenging, as the path is quite narrow. You reach the pre-summit along the path and then through steep mountain pine alleys you finally reach the summit cross (3 hours). Here your eyes can space from the Tannheimer mountain chain till Neuschwanstein Castle and Füssen, Hohenschwangau and Forgensee. From the small summit area you have a wonderful view of the entire Raintal, the beautiful Ammergau and the Zugspitze area. But the impressive north faces of Gimpel, Kellenspitze and Gehrenspitze are the most impressive. A little next to the cross there is a kind of bench from which you can enjoy the view while taking a leisurely rest. There is a hidden box attached to the rock under the bench with an additional summit book. After enjoying this view, we hike down the valley to get to Frauensee. It is quite hidden through the forrest. That is why many legends flourished. One legend says that a castle sank here many years ago and lies under the water. The natural swimming lake is surrounded by untouched nature and many rare animal species feel at home here. It is quite hidden through the Forrest. We stop at Frauenseestube to get a drink or eat something and we finally head to Reutte to catch the train back.
