    The Kops reservoir or Kopssee - a beautiful reservoir that you can walk around on a scenic route along the lake. It is worth a visit just for the gigantic dam wall.

      The Kops reservoir, also known as the Kopssee, is picturesquely nestled in the Austrian Alps in the state of Vorarlberg. This artificial reservoir was created by the construction of the Kops dam on the Ill river and is primarily used to generate energy. The imposing dam rises majestically and forms an impressive contrast to the surrounding alpine landscape.

      The Kops reservoir covers an area of around 217 hectares and reaches a maximum depth of around 85 meters. Surrounded by wooded slopes and rugged peaks, the lake offers an idyllic backdrop for nature lovers and those seeking relaxation. The region around the reservoir is a popular destination for hikers and offers numerous opportunities for outdoor activities.

      In addition to its importance as an energy source, the Kops reservoir presents itself as a place of peace and relaxation. The lake's clear mountain water reflects the surrounding mountains, while hiking trails and viewpoints offer visitors unforgettable panoramic views. Whether you enjoy the breathtaking natural scenery or do some sport, the Kops reservoir is a fascinating destination for anyone who wants to experience the beauty of the Austrian Alps.
