Description

We will perform two separate hikes in the Lechtal area. First we start with the famous Großer Widderstein (T5, UIAA I climb, 6.9km, 836 m gain). Then we drive to Lechleiten and finish with Biberkopf (T4, 9.1km, 1037m gain) https://www.hiking-buddies.com/routes/routes_list/2048/ (event will be created).

The hike will be postponed if the weather is not good.

Route: TBD

Technical Difficulty: This hike is NOT suitable for beginners.  The route involves some UIAA I climbing sections. You have to be absolutely surefooted and no fear of heights. You should have above average pace (>500m gain/hour) and stamina, and walking speed of about 6km/h in the flat parts.

Transport: We will go by car as the starting point is not easily accessible by public transport. Due to Kontaktbeschränkung only two persons per seat row are allowed in each car. The driver(s) may require passengers to pay in advance. Please read the car instructions carefully. If the hike or lift is cancelled or postponed, the drivers must reimburse the prepaid payments. Otherwise a passenger dropping out before departure must only be reimbursed if the driver can find a replacement. Car drivers must contact me first if they drop out.

Joining: Click on carpool. If a car has free seats, read the instructions and possibly join the car. Otherwise add yourself to the waiting list and regularly check for free seats. You are not automatically assigned to a car.

Legal disclaimer: This is not a guided tour. I merely organize the trip to the starting point with like-minded, qualified, properly equipped and reliable persons. Every participant must be able to navigate her/himself on the suggested route. If you join, you acknowledge that hiking is dangerous, you are fully responsible for yourself and that you have sufficient insurance (DAV, Bergrettung or similar).

Weather forecast  sunny, max. 19°C

Note: Please unjoin the event well in advance, if you don't want to come. You cannot unjoin the event when it is starting in less than 12 hours. No-shows will be recorded in your profile.
