    The Brucher dam is also available as a service water dam for water sports, camping and leisure use. You can get information from the community of interest for tent sites Bever-Talsperre e. V. Diving and surfing are not permitted in or on the Brucher dam.

      The Brucher dam is located near Marienheide in the Oberberg district. It is purely a recreational lake. The "Fuhrmannsweg" from the excursions of the Bergisches Wanderland invites you to go hiking, or you can walk around it in a leisurely stroll with the family along the shore over a distance of three and a half kilometres. A campsite is located directly on the lake and invites you to a holiday by the water.

      The dam is known for its excellent sailing and bathing spots.
      Bathing spots are located in the following areas:
      • at the Sailing Club
      • at the DLRG station
      • at the dam wall
      • at the campsite

      Arriving by public transport:
      for example from Cologne main station (platform 10) with the regional train RB 25 in the direction of Meinerzhagen
      Marienheide stop (platform 1)
      Stop at Marienheide Bahnhof, continue with bus line 336 in the direction of Gummersbach Bahnhof
      Stop VDK-Heim, Marienheide-Müllenbach

        It's good that the DLRG exists.
