It is one of those deeply cut ditches/chrachen in the Napf region. And this one with the small fountain is definitely one of the most impressive. You keep thinking: there's no way you can go any further now. And yet you then go around a rock into a new section of the valley.

Very eroded path, but still quite good to drive. Due to the amount of water always quite wet there.

Absolutely brilliant passage with a fairly steep descent and then an extremely steep ascent on a stony road. But it can be driven with an eBike and some technology.
