The works canal is the so-called empty shot of the Niedernach power plant. Water only runs here when the turbines of the lower secondary power station are switched off. The water (max. 12m³ / sec) comes from the Rissbach on the Austrian border and is fed through the 7km long Rissbach tunnel. About 600m above the power plant - in the Alpenbachtal - the tunnel emerges. You can get there on foot.

Here the Rissbach rushes in with all its might. It is diverted via tunnels from the Eng between Vorderriss and Hinterriss in order to provide more water for the Walchensee power plant.
