    Beautiful, very old dam. A tour is highly recommended. The forest path remains on a level and is very easy to drive on, almost like asphalt.

      The Eschbachtalsperre was the first drinking water dam in Germany. The hiking trail around it is very good with the bike passable. In addition to the dam is a small, narrow forest trail down to the foot of the wall, but rather something for mountain bikes. I had to dismount because it seemed too dangerous to me after trying a few meters by bike.

        The oldest drinking water dam in Germany and the oldest in NRW. After her on place 2 of NRW's oldest dams is the Heilenbecker dam.
