  • Höhenprofil

    A short and not excessively steep round over meadows and fields to Zug and along the Lech back to the Kneipp facility.

    From the Zug district, the walking tour leads along the street through the centre of Zug. Follow the asphalted road until you reach Egg. After the bus stop, a path leads downhill on the right, and through the forest. Now the road is clear and in front of the forest swimming pool leads a bridge over the Lech. Now it goes right past the Kneipp station over a narrow path again along the bank of the Lech upstream to Zug. After the mountain railway lift station, turn right before the fishpond and go uphill again back to the starting point.

    A stop at the Älpele inn or the fishpond is always a highlight. You can also walk in the opposite direction.
