Here you hike through a beautiful forest on the WasserWeltenSteig. At this point a small stream murmurs over the stones. The hydropower nature trail also begins nearby.

Today we were out and about at the Linach Reservoir again. Despite the fog and drizzle, it was truly mystical on some stretches. 6°C (43°F) plus is the ideal hiking temperature for me.
