Long but technically rather Easy hike in Austria from Leutasch to Ehrwald that is part of the famous Adlerweg.

It’s a long journey of about 20 kilometres starting in Leutasch. From there we will be walking along Leutascher Ache River and Gaistalbach Creek till we reach at the end of Gaistal Valley a magnificently remote place with old growth forest. Then when we will follow Ganghoferweg trail passing close to Hämmermoosalm and further into the valley to Gaistalalm and Tillfussalm. The route runs all the time between Mieming and Wetterstein Mountain Range with peaks that are becoming more and more impressive as you hike up, all of them well above 2000 m. A panoramic hike that should never get too steep will take us to Igelsee lake where Leutascher Ache River has its sources.
We finally walk down till Ehrwald towered by the austrian side of Zugspitze to drink and eat something warm together.
