Glör Reservoir

Slowly calm returns to the Glör dam, the days are getting shorter and the leaves on the trees begin to change color ... the atmospheric time at the Glör begins - the autumn.

August 7, 2022,Rund um die Glörtalsperren und ein Stück der Glör entlang ☁️🌳🌲

Parked right on the beach 🏖 by little Rimini 🤪 or was it Glör? 🙈
Crazy that we are not the only ones who wanted to take advantage of the beautiful weather was clear
Well, we didn't care, we made the best of it! We even walked alone for the most part and only stopped at the dog beach 👌

After a long time, I went for a walk around the Glör again. The tree population has decreased rapidly, but luckily there are still enough deciduous trees 🌳. My hope of finishing the walk dry only worked because of the trees. A few people braved the weather and were in the water at ☔... until it started to thunder😦. The …

Since the Komoot recording wasn't working at all for Carmen today, I quickly imported the tour. Of course, the pictures aren't in the same place, but that doesn't matter. It was great and the dogs can swim a lot. The access road to the Glör is still closed, but the road is slowly taking shape 👍at least that's what you …

Unbelievable... the whole Glör to myself. In the 2:30 hours I saw a family of four and a jogger... Tried an "ice bath" on the recommendation of my friend.

Parked directly at the Glörtalsperre, Glörtalsperre 1 in Breckerfeld. Parking in the winter months is free, otherwise you have to take a parking ticket. € 1 per hour
On the way back, forget to close Komoot for a moment. Start and end point is of course A.

I haven't been here in ages and was totally surprised by how beautiful this little reservoir is 🤩.

The path along the Glör is also very worthwhile, even though it's very wet at the moment.

December 30, 2023,Wasser marsch! - an der Glörtalsperre

Today Ursel and I decided to take advantage of the wonderful weather and take a walk around the well-filled Glörtalsperre. The past few hours had been characterized by bright sunshine, and the period without rain seemed just right for our little trip.
