Volmequelle
The Volmequelle has been enclosed at the Volmehof for around eighty years and is continuously maintained for visitors from outside and locals. As the source of one of the area's defining bodies of water, the spring has become a popular excursion destination that is still a popular hiking destination today. Under the leadership and loving care of the Meinerzhagen branch of the Sauerland Mountain Association (SGV), the facility offers a wonderful view of the spring itself, further information and a rest area to linger.

Two carved signs on the Fritz Paulmann Trail show visitors the way to the spring. The Volme is 48 kilometers long and flows into the Ruhr near Vorhalle. Its source is 460 meters above sea level and its mouth is 91 meters. Its catchment area covers 412 square kilometers and includes five dams: Jubach, Glör, Ennepe, Hasper and Heilenbecker dams with a total capacity of 18.25 million cubic meters. The average discharge of the Volme is 777,600 cubic meters per day and thus 283,824,400 cubic meters per year.

Here rises the Volme, the largest watercourse in Meinerzhagen. The Volme flows into the Ruhr after about 70 km past Hagen.
