ヘマーの湖・トップ20

The Sorpesee, the water has a lot to offer in terms of landscape, the reservoir is embedded in a beautiful forest landscape.

The Ameckedamm divides the Sorpesee into the main lake and the fore-basin. From here you have a great view over the lake. There are many benches for long breaks. The cycle path leads over the wall around the reservoir and is in excellent condition. Sometimes it is shared by skaters and hikers. In the eastern part, the route leads through very beautiful forest sections.

The Sorpesee has the third largest dam wall of all Sauerland reservoirs. From here you have a great view over the lake. There are many benches for long breaks. The cycle path leads over the wall around the reservoir and is in excellent condition. Sometimes it is shared by skaters and hikers. Partly the route leads through very beautiful forest sections.

The water from the lake is used to wash the stones in the nearby Hönnetal limestone works. The washed-out sediments are washed back into the lake and settle there. The lake in the quarry owes its name to the intense color of the water: The Blue Lagoon. It is 80 meters deep and has a water temperature of 8 degrees.

Easy parking, nice interesting path with a good view of the limestone quarry. The observation tower is also worthwhile. Here you can see more than 40 km in good visibility. A board on the strand helps for orientation.

Nice view of the lake ...
