Lech (Vorarlberg Austria)
The river through the village as well as the valley has also the same
name. The river Lech flows down through Reutte in Triol, Füssen and
Augsburg
in Germany into the Donau traveling to the Black See. Since Diana,
Princess of Wales, visited here for skiing, many skiers
form GB are visiting. Because you can ski everywhere except for
protected forest, and some
ungroomed ski routes are available, it is quite attractive for
off-piste skiers.
Avalanche and other alpine risks have to be taken into account.

Auerspitz
(Spitzingsee Germany) Mountain Ski
Auerspitz, the neighborhood of the Rodwand, has a wonderful north east
slope for moutain skiing.
It is easy to reach by a comfortable jeep road to the Rodwandhaus,
which is just in the next to Auerspitz.
This time I took the
route to Soin-Alm and then to Geitau via Klarer-Alm. This route has a
steep and narrow hiking route where you had better to put skin on your
skis. Or it is better to take a route via Soinsee to Geitau, or to
Ursprung valley via Sillberg-Alm.
