You have to be able to balance well to get over it. But otherwise, if you have waterproof, ankle-high shoes, you can take the direct route through. (At least it worked for me.)

According to Wikipedia, the former Roman Catholic parish church now serves as a war memorial. Elsewhere, it states that it was built at the end of the 13th century and was originally called St. Peter's, before being renamed St. Peter and Paul about 100 years later.

When the water level is high, a tree trunk and a wooden plank are placed across the stream to allow people to cross it dry. There are also places where you can jump over the stream.
