Summer in Lech and at the Tannberg

Mountain Summers in a Beautiful Cultural Landscape

Flower-filled meadows, fresh mountain air and the gentle sound of cowbells – this is summer in Lech.


When the scent of freshly cut hay fills the air and cowbells echo across the alpine meadows, summer has arrived in the mountains. Where our guests ski down snow-covered slopes in winter, they are greeted by an astonishing variety of wildflowers during the warmer months.


Early summer is particularly impressive: Before the first hay harvest, the meadows in the valley are in full bloom, while snow often still covers the mountain peaks. Depending on the altitude and time of year, the landscape reveals a different and fascinating side of itself.


The region also offers many remarkable geological features. The Gypsum Holes, the Stone Sea and other natural wonders invite you to explore and discover.



But summer in Lech offers much more than nature and tranquillity. A wide range of sporting activities, events, summer cable cars and the local bus service provide plenty of variety. On warm days, the forest swimming pool is the perfect place for a refreshing dip or a relaxing break surrounded by nature.
