A short stop is always worthwhile here with a mountain bike: The fish ladder with the small water cascade is a beautiful sight every time. I found it particularly pleasant to get off briefly, watch the water, and soak in the calm atmosphere – a little highlight by the wayside.

This hidden bench is a really nice find with a mountain bike. I stopped here briefly and enjoyed the view – a quiet spot away from the hustle and bustle, perfect for a little break. The view is really awesome and makes the stop absolutely worthwhile.

Who would have guessed such a beautiful spot would be hidden behind this water protection wall? Certainly not me! A bench and trash can, and a beautiful view of the Klingnau Reservoir. It's very popular with young people, but rarely free in nice weather.

A small oasis of peace behind the flood protection wall. It's easy to overlook, but once you discover it, you'll always come back. Beautiful view of the Klingnau reservoir.

Tree trunks have been cleared from the trail, making it pleasantly flowing. Only one tree trunk remains, which is easy to walk under. The trail is a little bit of a beauty. The stream is almost dry, and the trail is only slightly wet in one spot. Have fun!
