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.

September 19, 2025,Genusstour 8: „Eine Burg thront im Warchetal“ Robertville 🇧🇪

After researching which leisure tours dogs are allowed on last night and somehow not finding anything concrete, although the short leisure tours did say they were suitable for dogs, I decided on two short tours today that definitely don't have to hide! Very beautiful tours, with narrow paths, views, water, and a bit of adventure 😉🥾🌳🐕

June 22, 2025,🇧🇪 Ovifat / Robertville 5⭐ - Genusstour um das Château de Reinhardstein

On the last day of my short vacation, we did a loop around the Château de Reinhardstein. It was short because it was very humid and warm, and the 6 km felt like yesterday's 15 km 🥵🔆.
Making matters worse was that today was the RDHF (Raid Des Hautes Fagnes) – a mountain bike event in the High Fens. Try …

October 4, 2024,Bij Stuwdam Robertville met mooi uitzicht op kasteel Rheinhardstein

While shopping we thought it was actually lovely walking weather. So when we got home we looked for a route on Komoot. We drove there with our ‘mountain goat’ Pebbles. We started the Komoot walk, but we had to walk straight on the main road, so we looked at the walking signs and chose the blue walk. It was a …

This tour has been on my list for a while. And it's really beautiful!☺️ 🥰 Luckily we were there early, because the parking spaces on site are limited... and quickly filled.
The elevation is right, but it was quite steep in some places. Roots and gravel are an additional challenge!😅

Beautiful route "around" a castle. Walked with kids aged 5 and 7. Note: quite tough up and down, with small clamber pieces.

A very beautiful hike, but unfortunately, I can't confirm the easy rating. Surefootedness and sturdy footwear are required on the trail. It would be nice if the rating were reviewed to avoid unpleasant surprises for hikers who rely on the rating.
