The Oleftalsperre is a rewarding destination for a tour around. Trips to Rocherath and Hollerath are also included, so you can also see something of the Eifel region.

Hiking

The picturesque Olefsee, a drinking water dam with a capacity of 20 million cbm, lies in the midst of beautiful forests. A circular route of 13.5 km runs around the Olefsee, which offers hikers or cyclists an inexhaustible source of relaxation. The dam wall of the drinking water dam in pillar cell construction is still unique in Germany.

Impressive dam of the Olef reservoir (drinking water). From the parking lot a road leads up to the dam, which is passable. On the eastern side of the lake leads a path that is closed to public transport.
