DOGS
Unfortunately, animals are not allowed in the lakes. As the owner of the reservoirs, the Ruhrverband prohibits this in its leisure regulations and thus complies with the public use ordinance of the Arnsberg district government, which does not allow animals to bathe.

INFORMATION FOR YOUR WATER EXPERIENCE
The Ruhrverband, which is responsible for managing the lakes, provides information and rules for the use of Biggesee and Listersee. Here you will find the Ruhrverband's current recreational regulations for the reservoirs:
