Arlenzauberweg Trail
From carnivorous plants to true mountain survivors to perfectly organised colonies!
The Arlenzauberweg trail leads from the Bergbahn Lech-Oberlech cable car mountain station via the Libellensee lake past beautiful flower meadows on the Schlegelkopf to the Rud-Alpe (or vice versa), with numerous treasures to enchant visitors interested in nature.
The special features of animals and plants are presented at more than 20 stations along the fabulous hiking trail. What are the remarkable achievements of an ant colony? Why is the yellow gentian sometimes rather bitter? How come we can draw great benefits from one plant but not another? And who on earth is this Arle that gave the Arlberg its name? In an informative and entertaining way, the small and often hidden treasures along the Arlenzauberweg trail are put under the magnifying glass.
The figure of “Mathiesle”, based on Albert Mathies, the Arlberg original who had his second home on the Rud-Alpe in the last century, accompanies families and hikers interested in nature through the realm of the Arles.
On the Rud-Alpe’s large sun terrace you can enjoy Austrian and regional specialities in beautiful surroundings and admire the wonderful views of the Lech mountains. After the hike, the children can enjoy plenty of action at the large water playground and tree house, as well as a petting zoo with white giant hares, miniature goats and mini pigs.
Length & Difficulty:
approx. 2-kilometre long hiking trail; from the Bergbahn Lech-Oberlech cable car mountain station, it’s a gentle downhill walk to the Rud-Alpe.
