When it rains in the mountains, the water level and current can rise rapidly. Check the current and verify the precipitation situation in the mountain region upstream.
No satellite value for rivers. High discharge often makes the water murky.

Underwater
Automatically translated.
Entry is possible from the lower or upper entry point. The lower entry is also possible with a big step. The basin is not very large and you can easily do several laps. Under the bridge it is worth looking up at the bridge against the blue sky. Occasionally you also see trout.
Hazards
Automatically translated.
Check the current conditions carefully. Do not let yourself be carried over the outflow (stone edge). In rain in the mountains, do not enter the river!
Surroundings
Automatically translated.
You can also sunbathe on the stones and, in warm weather, bathe well in the river. In fine weather there are a great many tourists.
