An impressive viewpoint! Really beautiful. And when you read that the Lech is only allowed to be a wild river in two places for a few kilometers 😭. But I understand that they wanted and want to use the energy. I can also recommend the Austrian Lechtal, where the young Lech is still a bit wilder in many places.
