    Tips

    May 14, 2020

    The garbage pond was once built to run a mill and sawmill.
    According to the NZZ "15 beavers have been fooling the employees of the Steinmaur community since last year (2019)". The beavers migrated from the Glatt out of the Fischbach. The pond was undermined in several places, so that the walkway now has to be led over wooden planks. It has several dams around one and a half meters high and traces of beavers can be found in the adjacent fields.
    During a storm in May 2018, the brook tore away a beaver dam. The material blocked the culvert under a street, which is why several buildings were flooded.
    Even if you may not find any beavers, it is always nice to look at "the works" of the beavers.
