Brucher Talsperre

The Brucher dam is also available as a service water dam for water sports, camping and leisure use. You can get information from the community of interest for tent sites Bever-Talsperre e. V. Diving and surfing are not permitted in or on the Brucher dam.

The Brucher dam is located near Marienheide in the Oberberg district. It is purely a recreational lake. The "Fuhrmannsweg" from the excursions of the Bergisches Wanderland invites you to go hiking, or you can walk around it in a leisurely stroll with the family along the shore over a distance of three and a half kilometres. A campsite is located directly on the lake and invites you to a holiday by the water.

The dam is known for its excellent sailing and bathing spots.
Bathing spots are located in the following areas:
• at the Sailing Club
• at the DLRG station
• at the dam wall
• at the campsite

Arriving by public transport:
