Bütgenbach Dam

Highlight • Monument

There are many dam walls, there are higher, wider, more powerful ones than this one. This is not a superlative, but still unique. Rarely do you get so much insight into the technology and architecture of a dam.

Bütgenbach Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Bütgenbach dam was built between 1929 and 1932. The main function of the dam is to regulate the course of the Warche river. This created the lake of Bütgenbach. It is a starting point for beautiful, popular hiking routes: for example, a 10-kilometer walk can be made around the lake.

Bütgenbach Town Center

Highlight • Settlement

Nice place with great gastronomy and many destinations. The St. Stephen's Church, which is well worth seeing, and the Bütgenbacher See are definitely worth a visit. At the tourist information you can get everything you need for your visit, maps, flyers and of course souvenirs.

Warche Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Hiking along the Warche is highly recommended. Here you follow the winding Warche, which flows several meters lower. You yourself go up and down. Enjoy nature, but be careful and pay close attention to where you step. Roots!

Robertville Dam

Highlight • Monument

The dam itself is not crazy but it is a good starting point for walks in the surroundings, and in particular the one that leads to the very close Reinhardstein castle.

Robertville Lake

Highlight • Lake

The approximately 80 hectare large reservoir of Robertville is surrounded by idyllic nature and is a popular destination. With the dam, the water of the Warche is dammed and is used to supply the city of Malmedy with water and to generate electricity.
