    The Greifenstein power plant on the Danube is a run-of-river power plant with nine Kaplan bulb turbines and a 455-meter-long dam. It supplies electricity to approximately 500,000 households and dams the Danube for a length of approximately 31 kilometers. Of ecological note are the irrigation system for stabilizing groundwater and a fish pass that allows fish to overcome the elevation difference.

    For cyclists and hikers, the area surrounding the power plant offers beautiful routes along the Danube's oxbow, ideal for tours or a refreshing break by the water. Thus, Greifenstein combines technical significance with nature experiences and relaxation.
