Has a top bike path on the left (direction of Wendlingen) on the dam until just before Wendlingen. It's your own fault if you drive on the street.

A beautiful, secluded stream, completely natural. A memorial stone commemorating (presumably forced) labor under adverse conditions.

The cycle path on the dam is nice, but coming from Zizishausen you have to be careful not to miss the entrance on the left, otherwise you won't have the chance to get onto it again until later.
