Sterenbachsee

The Sterenbachsee is picturesquely situated between Wittlich and Wengerohr and, surrounded by trees, is a popular local recreation area for walks or as a running track for guests and citizens. The reservoir is 400 metres long and a maximum of 160 metres wide. It is crossed from north to south by the Sterenbach stream, whose outflow is first channelled through pipes under the motorway and later flows into the Lieser. Swimming in the lake is prohibited. Fishing is permitted. Fishing licences are available from the tourist information office in Wittlich on presentation of a federal fishing licence.
