    Diaba holes (Balzers legends)
    One day a strange man came to Mäls with a fishing rod. At a farm he stopped in front of a cesspool, awkwardly hooked a worm on the line, then threw it into the cesspool and waited anxiously for a fish to bite.
    It wasn't long before more and more people from the village were watching this strange fisherman. "He's got a problem in his head," people rightly said to themselves; but more and more people came running, big and small, and some also believed in the end that maybe there were fish in the liquid manure. The stranger did not let himself be disturbed by the crowd of laughing and chattering people, acted very tense and waited like a real fisherman for the twitch of the fishing line. People waited long and patiently until a farmer nudged the strange fisherman and said with a grin: "You, dear sir, you can't catch fish here!".
    Then the stranger gave a strange answer and smiled at the same time: "Maybe, what I don't catch, my brother will surely catch." The stranger continued fishing for a while, then pulled out the line again, took it under his arm, calmly went out of the village and let the people mock him.
    When the farmer, who had been watching with his whole family, returned to his house, he stopped in horror: a window was wide open and the whole sow had been stolen from the chimney. How the farmer cursed! Now he knew exactly why the stranger had fished in the liquid manure and also understood why he had spoken of his brother.

      Great view along the rock face. According to stories, thieves hid in the crevices and recesses.

        Great vantage point. Provides a view of the almost vertical rock walls.
