The Große Dhünn Reservoir is a real highlight for cyclists who appreciate quiet routes and expansive landscapes. On the designated paths, you'll ride through a protected nature reserve with little traffic and plenty of space to enjoy nature. Long, steady stretches and beautiful views of the water make this section ideal for relaxed tours away from busy routes.

This dam was built between 1960 and 1962 and was identical in size to today's Große Dhünn fore-dam.
