From the starting point at the Rüfiplatz, take the hiking bus in the direction of Zürs am Arlberg. After about 5 minutes you reach the stop "Trittkopf" in Zürs. From this stop, first walk along the road through the centre of Zurich to the roundabout and continue in the direction of Flexenpass. 200 m after the roundabout, a goods road branches off to the southwest on the right, which leads uphill to Lake Zuersersee. The wide stony gravel path leads directly to Lake Zuersersee. The highest point of the hike is reached after about one hour at an altitude difference of 2174 metres with a perfect view of Lake Zuersersee. From the highest point downhill along the forest path to the lake at an altitude difference of 2168 metres. A hilly path leads partly along the lake shore around the lake. The round trip takes a maximum of 30 minutes. Surrounded in a clockwise direction, beautiful views of Oberlech and Lech open up. On the shore of the lake in the direction of Lech, the stony forest path leads east downhill. After about 20 meters a narrow path branches off to the left. The path leads over alpine meadows down to the Madlochalpe 1942 meters. From here the path turns left downhill to Zürsbach. North of the path it goes downhill over alpine meadows. Left view over the shoulder accompanies the Omeshorn. At Köpfe 1917 metres the path is a bit steeper downhill, but after a few hundred metres, the path runs again via alpine meadows to Wiesele to Zürsbach. Along the stream, follow the path to the left back to Lech. The hike is ideal for families and you hike back to Lech am Arlberg along the leisurely stream.
