    Confluence of the clear Schwarzbach and the milky, still young Kander, which plunges down the valley here.

    Hiking

    Deep in the secluded Gastern Valley, two distinctive mountain streams meet: the clear, tranquil Schwarzenbach and the more powerful Kander. The visible difference in color and current is particularly impressive and can be beautifully observed at their confluence.

    Surrounded by steep rock faces, ancient mountain forests, and the typical Gastern Valley stillness, this is a moment of nature that is both invigorating and calming – a little-known gem for anyone who loves wild river landscapes. 💧🌿📸✨
