    One of the most beautiful dams in the Bergisches Land. The body of water, which is segmented by five upstream dams, and the surrounding, varied landscape with many wooded sections and mountain ranges offer the best hiking opportunities.

      The Wupper dam is used for flood protection and the low water level of the Wupper and was opened in 1987 and today offers a habitat for numerous animal and plant species and is now a popular destination.



      Here you will find ideal conditions for water sports: The bathing area is located at the Kräwinkler Bridge (water sports and leisure facility). In addition to swimming, you also have the opportunity to explore the dam from the water by renting boats and pedal boats.



      Diving licenses for the underwater world can also be purchased here.



      A snack completes the offer.

        Beautiful - beautiful - Wuppertalsperre 😊😍

        In particular, the surroundings of rich forest, the slight hill in many places, make a tour around the Wuppertalsperre a feast for the eyes 😉👌

        You should plan about 11-13 km to hike around the northern dam. It is also worthwhile a bit south of the car bridge, but then such a trip would easily increase to 22 km and more.

        There are enough rest areas in many sections, on top of that they are well chosen and all ensure a beautiful view of the water ⛵️
