The Rätikon Alps deliver some of the most striking limestone topography in Europe, and Lünersee sits right at the center of it. ⛰️
Located at the end of the Brandnertal valley in Vorarlberg, Austria, this massive alpine reservoir rests at an elevation of 1,970 meters. It is surrounded by sharp, rugged peaks, including the Schesaplana—the highest mountain in the range at 2,965 meters. 🏔
A classic, relatively straightforward loop that circles the entire shoreline. It offers a great perspective on how the turquoise water contrasts against the gray limestone walls. 🏞
For those looking for technical terrain, the trail up to the summit offers steep switchbacks, exposed rocky sections, and exceptional views extending across the Austrian and Swiss Alps. 🪨
