Tips

The best way to see the reservoir of the Herbringhauser Talsperre is from the 215 meter long listed dam wall over which the hiking trail leads. Otherwise, the area around the dam is surrounded by a fence at a distance of about 100 meters for water protection reasons. In addition to the drinking water supply, the dam also serves to store service water and protect against flooding in the central Wupper area.

Since you rarely get close to the water on the circular hiking trail around the Hebringhauser dam (drinking water protection area), the view from the 200-metre-long dam wall is all the more beautiful. Big fish in the water, cackling ducks on the water and proud gray herons on the shore give an idea of the biodiversity around and in the reservoir. Unfortunately, photography is made difficult by a high fence.

You hike through beautiful countryside and can enjoy nature. Unexpected photo opportunities are along the way.

Unfortunately, there is a long passage on the road at the end.
