    The Aarberg hydropower plant is a run-of-river power plant at the start of the Hagneck Canal near Aarberg, which was put into operation in 1963.
    With this construction of this facility, the Aare water between Bern and Lake Biel was used a fifth time. The bed of the "old Aare" - the original course of the Aare before the Jura water correction - only needs to be supplied with mandatory water. What made the old Aare into an almost inconspicuous body of water. Today, however, the old Aare has been restored in many places and is an experience in itself.

      Imposing sight when you stand up at the weir and marvel at the water masses.
