    Impressive this gorge, how the energy from the water is used...

    The weir and the power station's gorge, and when there is little water, the rocks are easy to marvel at. But not to enter!

    The Soor small hydroelectric power plant is a beautiful sight, even though the Thur River isn't carrying much water. The power plant has been carefully integrated into the Thur landscape and features a fish ladder.
