Highlight • Lake

The Genkeltalsperre is a pure drinking water dam and is located in the urban areas of Gummersbach and Meinerzhagen. It is mainly fed by the rivers Genkel and Grotmicke. The average annual precipitation in the catchment area is 1320 mm, which ensures an annual inflow of approx. 10 million m³. Most households in the area can be supplied with drinking water from the Genkeltalsperre. It was built in 1950-53.

Genkel Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

If you don't just love asphalt and if you also like to drive on non-asphalted paths, you can only suggest going around the reservoir (approx. 10km). Again and again there are beautiful views of the lake.
