ズンダーン（ザウアーランド）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.

With a depth of over 70 meters, the Sorpesee is the deepest reservoir in the Ruhr Association and is also one of the largest reservoirs in the Sauerland. A popular leisure and recreation area.

Even after going around three times... still nice 👍

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 Hevearm and Hevesee nature reserve to the south is 320 hectares in size and serves to protect nationally important biotopes as well as rare plant and animal species. From August to April, tens of thousands of waterfowl come here every year, sometimes staying for months. They make the Möhnesee a bird sanctuary of international importance, here the densely wooded nature reserves dominate.

Nice view of Langscheid

from the dam you have a beautiful view of the lake.
