The dam was built for flood control and to augment low water levels. Today, it's also a fantastic local recreation area. Tamina Kallert, presenter of the WDR program "Wunderschön" (Beautiful), has already discovered this. Tamina tried stand-up paddleboarding on the Bever Dam for the show. You can also rent boards, book courses and tours. You can find more information here: https://www.dasbergische.de/poi/stand-up-paddling-schule-verleih

A wonderful site with a magnificent villa that once belonged to the factory owner, forest lover and hunter Fritz Hardt (1873-1959), the “Father of Dahlerau”.
