The Heilenbecketalsperre was built in the years 1894 to 1896 on the territory of today's cities Ennepetal - near the district Rüggeberg - and Breckerfeld in Ennepe-Ruhr-Kreis (North Rhine-Westphalia) and is the oldest dam in South Westphalia. The dam is operated by the Heilenbecke water association.

It is dammed by the Heilenbecke, which flows into the Ennepe, 7.5 km below the dam near Ennepetal-Milspe. With a maximum capacity of 450,000 m³, the water surface of the reservoir is 8.5 ha.

Cycling

With a length of 2.4 km, the Heilenbecker dam is the smallest of the three dams located around Ennepetal. Unfortunately, you can not cycle around it, because it is only released for pedestrians.

It was pointed out by a temporary sheriff that you should not cycle there. Unfortunately I had to say, the man is right. Stand everywhere signs where it is pointed out that you should not drive there. So, for information: who wants to go there commits an illegal act. ☝🏻😉
