Hiking

The Kemnader See lies between Bochum, Hattingen and Witten. It is the youngest of six Ruhr reservoirs. The construction of the reservoir was part of the planning [1] of the Ruhr University. It was laid out by the Ruhr Association and completed in 1979. The content is around 3 million cubic meters of water at an average height of 2.4 meters. The lake is surrounded by hiking and biking trails. The circular route around the reservoir is about 10 kilometers long.
