The sunsets on the reservoir are beautiful. If you have one, you should definitely take a reflex camera with you and take photos when the sky is clear - it's worth it.

Since I'm from Essen, I've had to drive for some time, but the peace and quiet and the fantastic view alone are worth making a detour here every time.

The Haltern reservoir is easy to reach by train. Trains run every 30 minutes from Münster and Wanne-Eickel.
At the train station, just keep to the right, walk a short distance parallel to the railway line and then cross under the railway line through a small tunnel. Immediately after the tunnel, turn left. The rest of the route is self-explanatory.
