Beschrijving

The Lech Hochablass is a weir that dams the river Lech and is accessible on foot. Below you see the river Lech when it passes the weir and a mighty waterfall flows down on the other side. There is also a fish ladder and large gravel banks north of the dam. The site is perfect to observe the Waterspreeuw, which breeds here every year. The Grote Gele Kwikstaart, Witte Kwikstaart and in winter the Waterpieper can also often be seen here.

Other interesting species are Kokmeeuw, Grote Zaagbek and IJsvogel, which are favored by the proximity to the lake Kuhsee. Southwest of the Lech Hochablass, at the 'Fotopunkt Hochablass' (Hochablass photo point), there are feeding stations in winter where Appelvink, Gaai and Grote Bonte Specht can be seen, and in the immediately surrounding forest area you can also see the Middelste Bonte Specht. The Hochablass is an unusual and impressive birdwatching spot and always worth a detour.
