Lake Harkort
Lake | Nature experiences
Lake Harkort, which is directly adjacent to Lake Hengsteysee, was created as a reservoir in the early 1930s. Located between Hagen, Herdecke and Wetter, it is a popular excursion destination for the region.
Sailing enthusiasts, canoeists, windsurfers and rowers meet there. They share the lake with the MS Harkort passenger ship, which commutes between April and October between the Seeplatz in Wetter and the Zweibrücker Hof in Herdecke. It can accommodate a total of around 250 people, 130 of them on the sun deck.

Properties:
Would you rather be on land than on the water? There is a cycle and hiking path to the north of the lake that runs directly along the shore from Wetter to Herdecke. This is visibly separated between cyclists and pedestrians and is part of the Ruhrtal cycle path.
The Hagen shore of the Harkortseess is less well developed, so unlike the Hengsteysee, the Harkortsee cannot always be circumnavigated directly on the shore. On the southern shore of Lake Harkort there are mainly camping and tent sites as well as a small marina
. However, if you move a little away from the shore on the Hagen side, you can also walk around the lake between the Kaisberg and the lake or in the middle of the Kaisberg. This route is around ten kilometers.
