sluice and dam area Explanation: I think it is the area at the top of the hill with the little sluice gate allowing the kids to create a dam and is then opened to let the water out. Reference: http://ankledeepwater.com/kids-shallow-water-play-melbourne-... |

(log) sluiceway Explanation: This suggestion is really by way of a supplement to Ramey and Andrea’s answers and comes from reading a bit more of the German description of the facility/attraction and comparing how similar water play facilities might be described in English. Zapfen-Schwemmanlage appears to refer to the side with the wooden channels, while Wildwasserlauf (or Bachlauf) refers to the side with the stone ditch. Unser Team hat in Handarbeit eine aussergewöhnliche Wasserspielwelt nahe der Bergstation der Serlersbahnen Mieders installiert. Das verzweigte Rinnensystem aus heimischen Lärchen auf der einen Seite und ein von Hand gemauerter Bachlauf auf der Anderen lässt Wasser zu einer hautnahen Erfahrung für Kinder werden. Kleine Wasserforscher können Holzzapfen auf verschiedenen Routen auf die Reise schicken, beobachten, wie sie in den Strudeltöpfen herumgewirbelt werden und pfeilschnell den kurvigen Holzrinnen entlang gespült werden. In Trögen, Sammel- und Strudeltöpfen lässt sich der Wasserfluss regulieren, stauen, umlenken und mit viel Action wieder ablassen. Der natürlich wirkende Bachlauf trumpft mit verschiedenen Staumechanismen und spektakulärem Wasserfall auf – wenn die Schleusen geöffnet werden, ergießt sich ein stattliches Bergbacherl in den Speichersee. Nasse Kleidung und glückliche Abenteurer garantiert. Vorsicht Springflut! https://www.naturidea.at/de/projekte/serleswasser-serlesbahn... In diesen Ruheoasen für Körper und Geist verführt die Kraft des Wassers die Besucher. Den Kleinsten ist das Flachwasser mit eigenem Wasserspielareal gewidmet. Egal ob Zapfen-Schwemmanlage oder Wildwasserlauf zum Spielen und Plantschen, Langeweile kommt hier nicht auf. [Also with English translation of sorts - The power of water allures visitors to these oases of tranquillity for body and spirit. The smallest is devoted to shallow water with a special water game area. No matter whether it is the “tap & sluicing system” or the white-water run for playing and splashing, it is never boring here!] https://issuu.com/stubaitirol/docs/stubai_magazin_so2016 Kinder vergnügen sich im flachen Becken des Serleswassers, einem Wasserspielareal mit Zapfen-Schwemmanlage und Wildwasserlauf zum Spielen und Kneippen. http://presse.tirol.at/de/mehr-vom-sommer-im-stubaital/pr737... [Again with English translation - Children can enjoy the Serles water in the flat basin, a water play area with a tap and watering system, and a wild water trail for playing and Kneipp hydrotherapy. http://presse.tirol.at/en/get-more-from-the-summer-in-the-st... ] Lots more photos here https://www.google.co.uk/maps/uv?hl=en&pb=!1s0x479d43ae1677a... Log Sluiceway http://static1.squarespace.com/static/56254ea7e4b06ba6af4124... timber and rock sluiceway for water play at a natural playground https://uk.pinterest.com/pin/297096906646502980/ Log Sluiceway 4’x6” +/- w/ 2 support brackets It turns out that kids love to watch the water flow down the sluiceway, because they love to put things in its path, or watch items float down with the movement of the water, so if you want a truly Natural Playground, with as many natural features as you can have, this real log play element is a must-have! http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:ZtPFOu6... Water Play at National Trust Mottisfont The design encourages family interaction an[d] play through the manipulation of a series of water channels controlled by a hand pump and sluice gates. http://www.greenplayproject.co.uk/water-play-mottisfont/ |
