A sign explains the function of the old weir, which is no longer in use. Around 200 meters upstream, the old Dreisam, which used to flow close past Eichstetten, was diverted into the canal bed that now exists. As a canalized river, it now flows past Eichstetten and Bahlingen and joins other rivers in Riegel in the Leopold Canal, which in turn flows further northwest into the Rhine. You can therefore cycle along the water to the Rhine (and further along it if necessary).
At or from this point downstream, the Dreisam often dries up in summer. Rapid dredging measures in 2024 prevented countless fish from dying.
