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.

This isn't an S2 or S3, maybe an S1.5 if you're booting up, not booting down.

After visiting Küssaburg, a stop for refreshment is recommended.

An old waterwheel that probably once powered a mill. Unfortunately, it only runs occasionally these days, when there's plenty of water.

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.
