      It is 30 hectares large, close to the Hanseatic city Breckerfeld Glörtalsperre. Since 1903-1904, the Glör stream has been dammed here in order to obtain drinking water and to regulate the water level of the Volme and Ruhr rivers. The dam of rubble is 168 m long and 32 m high. The dam has a storage capacity of 2.1 million cubic meters. Today, the Glörtalsperre is a popular destination because swimming (under DLRG supervision) is allowed and for a private beach was created. Excursion restaurants provide the tourists, there are paid and on the side also free parking. Since 2019, the previously drained dam fills with water again. It leads a gravel road to the dam, which is also good to ride on the bike.
