    Around the Möhne there are clean bike paths and a lot to experience

      The Möhne Dam is used to increase low water levels, protect against flooding and generate electricity from hydropower. The primary goal is to increase the low water levels of the Ruhr, into which the water from the dam flows via the lower reaches of the Möhne and the confluence in the Arnsberg district of Neheim. The regulation of the water level of the Ruhr guarantees a consistent supply of raw and industrial water to the Ruhr area. The owner and operator of the dam is the Ruhrverband.

      The Möhnesee, which is one of the largest reservoirs in North Rhine-Westphalia alongside the Rur Dam and the Biggesee, as well as the adjacent Arnsberg Forest are important local recreation areas, especially for people from the Ruhr area. There is therefore an extensive range of water sports on offer and an annual large triathlon competition on the Möhnesee. Barbecues on the lake, sailing, motorboating with electric motors and diving to depths of 25 meters are possible here. The Möhne Valley Cycle Path runs along both sides of the lake from Brilon to Neheim.
