Sorpesee Dam

Highlight • Monument

The Sorpesee is touristically very well developed. Here you can go diving, rowing, sailing, surfing, camping and, which I think is pretty cool, renting tree houses as accommodation (sorpesee.de/nordic-ferienpark-sorpesee/baumhaeuser-am-sorpesee.html). It …

October 18, 2025,Rund um den Sorpesee ⛵️🛟
On a whim, I drove to Sundern after work on Friday. A beautiful Airbnb apartment welcomed me. I used Saturday to sleep in, have breakfast, and then take a relaxing ride around Lake Sorpe. The entire route follows the beautiful shoreline, paved with cycling paths, partly through the colorful autumn forest. I also cycled around the retention basin near Amecke. …

Can be done when the weather is not too good. Otherwise it is probably too crowded there, today it was still OK. But tours through the forest are more fun.

An easy round around the Sorpesee. At the beginning we turned around the campsite to have a look, of course you can leave that out.

With this weather, you don't just ride around the lake, but also jump in after a picnic🌊... Nice cool water😍🤠

A nice bike ride, there is a good bike path that leads around the Sorpesee.

Hour down, hour around, hour back. There is so much to do and see in this world.

In beautiful weather, we hiked around the entire Sorpesee today. The eastern shore is dominated by dense forest, although some areas have been significantly reforested since Kyrill.
The western shore is dominated by numerous campsites.

A beautiful day 😎 and almost alone on the Sorpe, what more could you want 😂 and because it was so beautiful we quickly picked up a ☕️ from my dear mother-in-law! Let's keep it going 😉😂
