Lechtal Alps

The Lechtal Alps are a range of the Northern Limestone Alps in western Austria. Named for the Lech, which runs along their northwestern flank, they rise principally in Tyrol and extend west into Vorarlberg. To the north lie the Allgäu Alps, and to the south the mountain groups beyond the upper Inn and its tributaries. The Parseierspitze, at 3,036 metres, is the highest summit of the range and the only peak of the Northern Limestone Alps above three thousand metres.
