I find locks very fascinating, which is why I like to plan my routes accordingly. The facility of the Augst lock is beautiful and idyllic. The bank, which is right next to the lock entrance, invites for a short break. Maybe you are lucky and a ship arrives, so you can watch the locks.

The lock at the power plant impressively shows the power of the water. Especially when a ship is being carried out.
