View from the Höllenstein Dam

Highlight • Viewpoint

This is where the Black Rain is dammed. This created the Höllensteinsee. After the damming, it continues into the Blaibacher See, dammed by the dam wall of the Pulling power plant and flows close together with the white rain to finally become rain.

The route was beautiful, but we had to push my bike at times because my bike isn't suitable for large tree roots.

It is usually not possible to cycle along the Schwarzer Regen because there are either no paths at all or the terrain is too impassable.
