Hiking
In the mid-20th century, the Kerkrade coal mines discharged their polluted wastewater into the surrounding waterways. These included the Ham and Domaniale mines. They used the Anstelerbeek stream for this purpose. After the mines closed, measures were taken to improve the surrounding area. One of these measures was the construction of a hiking area, which includes this reservoir.
