    The St. Jakob Healing Spring is located on the Hohenwarte Reservoir and is a legendary spot along the hiking trail. It is located in the smallest village on the reservoir, St. Jakob, and invites hikers to linger.

      The fountain is beautifully preserved, just like the legend about the healing water.

        The fountain has been renovated very nicely but I wouldn't drink the water.
