we could always hear the river

The ongoing series we could always hear the river shows landscapes of the Thaya valley, which flows through a region of Lower Austria called Waldviertel, ‘the forest district’ in German. For more than two decades I have often stayed there in a family-owned old mill on the riverbanks. This isolated spot in the valley resonates with the echoes of the waterfall caused by the weir needed to operate the mill. Hence the title of the series.
