The Hengsteysee is a popular recreational area, surrounded by a 6.5 km long footpath and cycle path, which is also part of the Ruhr Valley Cycle Path and attracts many day trippers from the nearby cities, especially on summer weekends. Here, visitors can find activities such as boat rentals, tours on the "Freiherr vom Stein" ship and the Hohensyburg, which serves as a popular excursion destination above the lake.
