Here is a way to get over the Gail! For cyclists, however, the crossing is less suitable!

Hiking

The Schütt run-of-river power plant (12.5 MW) on the Gail can supply around 17,000 households with electricity from hydropower. As one of the oldest run-of-river power plants in Carinthia, parts of the power plant were put into operation more than 100 years ago and renovated in 2018/2019. A fish ladder was also installed.
