ヒュッテンの滝・トップ13

I always wonder if something was artificially added or if this waterfall was created exactly like this.

Good for trail running training

This section of the Sihl River is truly breathtaking. Crystal-clear water flows gracefully around massive boulders that rise majestically from the riverbed. The sound of the water cascading over the stones adds a soothing rhythm to the natural symphony of the landscape.

The traces of storms from recent years and decades are clearly visible here. The Sihl does not always flow so peacefully...

Unfortunately, the waterfalls were not really visible today....

In addition to the wonderful stream, which is ideal for jogging, the Mülibach also has a very interesting history 📖 In 1873, the silk manufacturer Rudolf Zinggeler-Syfrig received the rights to use the Mülibach to drive the machines in his Zinggeler AG silk mill. Above Richterswil, the star pond was created by damming the Mülibach. A two-kilometre-long pressure pipe carried the water down to Lake Zurich, where it drove a water turbine in Zinggeler's factory. For amusement and as a symbol of industrialization, from 1875 onwards the manufacturer let the water rise through a nozzle on holidays such as August 1st: A fountain was created with a height of 80 to 85 meters. This fountain was long considered the highest on the continent. In 1972 the power plant was shut down and with it the fountain. The fountain, which was restored by the Richterswil Historical Fountains Association, which was founded in 2003, was put back into operation in 2007. Today it sprays up to 101 m high.

Lies on the way to the Wildenburg. A beautiful place and recommended.

Wild stories about the Risitobel witches can be read in Stäfa's books from the end of the last century. But they weren't seen again for a long time. On Carnival in 1989, the witches descended from the Risitobel forest in Stäfa back to the village. From this day onwards they are causing mischief here and in the wider area.
