랑게르베헤‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 호수

The total filling volume is around 25 million cubic meters. Filling began in 1994. Every year, 3.8 million m³ of water is pumped into the lake from swamp wells in the Inden opencast mine so that it maintains its current level. According to the Aachen city region, this supply of swamp water will be necessary until 2061.

The Obermaubach dam in Obermaubach in the municipality of Kreuzau in the district of Düren, North Rhine-Westphalia, was built in 1933 and 1934 and serves as a compensating reservoir for the Rur inflows of varying strength and to control the most even possible discharge of water into the Rur. The reservoir is located in the area of the municipality of Kreuzau as well as in the upper area in the area of the municipalities of Hürtgenwald and Nideggen.

Very nice view from above, some benches and a table, a nice rest after a climb.

The Obermaubach reservoir is approx. 3 km long and has a storage height of approx. 5 m. There is also a circular hiking trail around the reservoir.

The Wehebach Dam was built in the 1980s and serves as a flood protection and drinking water supply for the region. The Wehebach Dam is fed by several streams, including the Wehebach, which gives it its name. From the dam wall, you have a magnificent view of the lake. Swimming and boating are prohibited, however.

Fantastic lake clean and romantic

Due to its location in a wooded area, the reservoir offers the opportunity for mainly ornithological nature observations. To the east of the dam are the remains of the ring wall of a Celtic refuge from the Iron Age.

The climb to the panorama trail can be sweaty in warm weather, but it's worth it
