Rote Wand (2.704 m)
The Rote Wand is the second highest mountain in the Lechquellengebirge and stands out due to its striking summit construction and red limestone. By car, it goes via the toll road into the Zugertal to the starting point. From here, follow the hiking path over the south-facing grassy fields to the Schwarzen Furka and on to the Oberen Sättele. Surrounded by red limestone and with easy climbing points, the trail leads higher and higher over the northern ridge. At the partly exposed and narrow summit ridge, full concentration is required. At the summit, you will be rewarded with a magnificent 360° panorama. Also the view to the starting point, the Formarinsee, makes the heart beat faster. Descent on the same route.
