Hiking
The area is ideal for exploring on foot and impresses with its tranquility, as bicycles are not allowed on the paths directly at the reservoir:
+ The classic circular trail: A gentle, approximately 2.4-kilometer circular hiking trail, Heilenbecke, leads around the reservoir itself.
+ Extended tour through the Freebachtal: Those looking for a more extensive hike can choose the Klütinger Alm Runde from the Upper Freebachtal. This moderate, approximately 10.4-kilometer tour connects the paths along the Freebach with the views of the Heilenbecke and Ennepetal reservoirs and a place to stop for refreshments.
