Möhnesee Dam

Highlight • Monument

The dam at the Möhnesee is a very impressive building. From the top you have another view over the Möhnesee, but also from below it is worth taking a look at the dam wall.

February 27, 2022,Rundwanderung westlicher Möhnesee im Sauerland über Sperrmauer und Delecke
This was our first encounter with the Möhnesee and our second hike over the carnival weekend. The Möhnesee is really beautiful and idyllic with lots of green shore paths around it.

The first stop of the hike on the southern shore of the western Möhnesee to the historic dam is very beautiful. Then the path unfortunately goes along the busy …

With the wonderful weather, we headed to Lake Möhne. Many people thought so too! The parking lot at the gatehouse was more than full, but we still found a spot. Since my friend wanted a "flat" route, we hiked near the lake's surface. Magnificent views were the reward. Because of the holiday, there were many, many hikers and bikers out …

From Delecke, it is 4 km along the main road. The local hiking trails show a much nicer route. The path along the main road is not possible at all.

The trail can also be cycled 😊 The starting point was the hikers' parking lot at the beautiful gatehouse. Refreshments in Delecke include Eiscafe Luna or Geronimo (a cult café for bikers), or, to finish off, …

An absolute disaster. Nothing nice about it. An industrial path (asphalt in the forest or right along the main road) around an industrial lake through a little industrial forest. Horrible doesn't adequately describe it.

Completed the first tour of our Eifel Canix hiking challenge today, because we looked at something in Soest and the Möhnesee was on the way.
We started the tour from the parking lot and went along the lake. We were very lucky because it was Saturday and the weather hadn't lured that many active people out yet, so we were …

Great route with start and finish at the Torhaus Restaurant. The reward of a delicious schnitzel or burger is very good.

First to the Möhnesee, then through the old town of Soest and then a walk through Bad Sassendorf.......a nice Sunday 😊☀️🍀
