Beautiful little dam. The loop around it is about 2.6 kilometers long. In summer you are allowed to swim at your own risk. A small, inexpensive (1h = € 0.50) parking space is in the immediate vicinity of the dam. There is even a water playground for children at the dam.

Originally built in the 1970s for domestic water supply, the reservoir is now a local recreation area. It is an EU-approved bathing water with a forebay as a children's paddling pool. Additionally, rowing boats can be rented during the summer months.
Two snack bars are open in the summer.
