From here you have a fantastic view of the tranquil Agger reservoir, surrounded by dense forests. The region is a popular recreational area. A hike around the reservoir is worthwhile any time of year.

The Rengse Dam is part of the Aggertal Reservoir. It was built between 1927 and 1929 and continues to fulfill important functions in water management. From the bench, there is a fantastic view across the elongated reservoir with its wooded shoreline.

The map and description show the peninsula of the Aggertalsperre, not the Genkel. The Genkeltalsperre is next door.
