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.

A small oasis of peace behind the flood protection wall. It's easy to overlook, but once you discover it, you'll always come back. Beautiful view of the Klingnau reservoir.
