n Hückeswagen, the Bevertalsperre is idyllically nestled in the Bergisches Land. Today it mainly serves the purpose of increasing the low water level and flood protection of the Wupper. It is very popular with water sports enthusiasts and invites you to swim in numerous small bays. Official bathing areas with snack bars and toilets are located at the "Angry Ant", at Campsites I and II and at Käfernberg.
Guided tours of the dam are also available by appointment (usually from Monday to Thursday between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m.). A diving school, boat rental, a school for boaters and a number of hiking trails complete the range of leisure activities.
