When running back and forth along rivers, you always have to ask yourself which bridge to choose to get to the other bank and thus on the way back. Here is one possibility, with a beautiful view of the river as so often.

In Rathausen stands a former Cistercian convent. Later, it became a foundation for people with severe disabilities (SSBL). The Rathausen power plant was built between 1894 and 1896 on the site of the former convent mill.
