"The Ennepe rises in the Märkischer Kreis southeast of the town of Halver at an altitude of 425 m above sea level and is dammed in the urban area of Breckerfeld to form the Ennepetal Dam (307 m above sea level). Its further course leads through Ennepetal, Gevelsberg and the western Hagen district of Haspe before it flows into the Volme near Hagen Central Station in the Eckesey district at around 100 m above sea level, which in turn flows into the Ruhr shortly afterwards in Hagen-Vorhalle.
