The "Thurweg" leads as an interesting narrow path to the right of the river Thur. The river is dammed at a large rock ledge and tumbles through a eroded rock gap with a waterfall down into a eroded rock basin and then into a wider basin framed on both sides by rock faces. The path leads down the northern very prominent rock face. But you can climb further down to the river with lots of rocks.

A rocky pool with a waterfall, a little off the path but easily accessible by climbing. Like the whole area, rockfall at risk!
