⛰️ First Weekend of Spring Hike through the Leutasch Valley ❄️🌱

Hello everyone!

This Sunday, join us for a scenic early-spring hike through the Leutasch Valley 🌲❄️🌷. We’ll follow more or less the path of the W10: Winter hike through the Leutasch Valley, enjoying partially snowy trails, alpine views, and fresh air. The hike will finish at Zum Klammgeist, a cozy restaurant where participants can enjoy lunch 🍽️✨. Perfect for those who love winter hiking and want to experience the valley transitioning into spring.

### 🥾 Difficulty & Conditions (Read Carefully!)

This is a mostly easy, mostly flat hike, but consider:

• Total distance: 15 km
• Cold temperatures and possible icy/muddy/slippery sections
• Steady pace required to reach the restaurant on time

👉 While the hike is easy in principle, participants must be able to keep pace so the group arrives at Zum Klammgeist for our reservation.
