겐켈탈스페레 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Hiking around the reservoir is great, but if you want a fantastic view from above, you have to go to the Unneberg Tower – highly recommended! 👍

The map and description show the peninsula of the Aggertalsperre, not the Genkel. The Genkeltalsperre is next door.

Even inexperienced hikers can easily walk around the dam.

The word "Echo" can be read in the photos of the dam. However, the word only becomes apparent through the reflection of the water. This is a 137-meter-wide and 6.5-meter-high art installation commissioned by REGIONALE 2025 by the internationally renowned artist collective Boa Mistura from Madrid, in close cooperation with the Aggerverband (Agger Association) and the Ratingen-based company "Proud to Print." It was officially opened on July 7 in the presence of around 50 guests from politics, administration, and the community.

The path from the top of the Inselweg towards Bredenbruch doesn't provide a satisfactory view of the foreshore dam due to the bushes and trees. However, this was possible with the drone.

Very beautiful peak with rock formations on the island path

At the top of the island path, there's a beautiful view of the Aggertalsperre and its dam wall. Photographed in this case by drone.

Magnificent view of the dam
