The "Follow the River" route series aims to completely hike the Lech on the German side in 4 stages from Füssen to the Danube estuary.
With these routes, I want to raise awareness about the massive destruction of our environment and sensitize people to these issues, because the construction of a total of 20 weirs between Füssen and Augsburg straightened, concreted, and practically forced the Lech into a corset, which led to drying out and a massive loss of species in the Lech floodplains.
The Lech was once a proud wild river. Sometimes up to two kilometers wide, with side arms, channels, and floodplain landscapes that were true natural paradises. Strongly fluctuating water levels testified to its primeval and untamed power; debris masses as well as typical mountain flowers were transported from the mountains to the valley, and after each flood, a new landscape presented itself. Nearly extinct fish swam in its waters, alpine flowers bloomed on its gravel and sand banks, and rare birds, like the Lech tern, nested in its floodplains.
Due to the point-to-point hiking, I made sure that the respective start and endpoints are accessible by public transport.
This route describes the stage between Augsburg and Kaufering. The path starts in Augsburg at the train station and leads along the west side of the Lech to the train station in Kaufering.

Particularly worth seeing are the historical buildings and structures that can be found along the hiking trails. One highlight is undoubtedly Schmiechen Castle from the 16th century, whose majestic tower can be seen from afar. Here you can not only take a look at the impressive architecture, but also walk through the adjacent castle park.
For families with children, short and well-marked hiking routes are particularly suitable. The nearby Bärensee lake, for example, invites you to take a leisurely walk and also offers a nice swimming opportunity in summer. The nature trail "Paartal" is also ideal for little explorers: here children can learn a lot about flora and fauna through play.
The best seasons for hiking in Schmiechen are certainly spring and autumn. In spring, the meadows shine in lush green and numerous flowers are in full bloom. In autumn, on the other hand, the colourful foliage transforms the entire village into a colourful spectacle of nature.
Another worthwhile hiking spot is the nearby forest that stretches directly behind the village. Here you can walk along narrow paths through dense rows of trees and enjoy the tranquillity of nature. The silence is only interrupted by birdsong while you let your gaze wander over the picturesque Paartal valley.
All in all, Schmiechen offers a variety of options for hiking enthusiasts: Whether short walks along the river or extended tours through the forest - everyone will find their own personal route here. So lace up your hiking boots and let yourself be enchanted by the beauty of this area!
