Hittisau | the village with most alps
Mountain tour through the Lecknertal in Hittisau with over 100 alps. Six alps are located on this hiking path.
The Lecknertal is located in Hittisau, the village with the most alps in Austria. A toll road takes you to the hiking car park. The route takes you along the sunny slope of the Hochhäderich-Hochgrat mountain range up to the Rohnenhöhe (at 1,639 m). It is worth taking a short detour to the nearby Lecknersee. Along this mountain hiking path - whose 660 m difference in altitude makes it hard-going - are six alps, four of which are where milk is processed there and then.
