The Harkortsee between the towns of Hagen, Herdecke and Wetter is a reservoir in the course of the Ruhr in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, built by the Ruhrverband as a river sewage treatment plant and completed in 1931. The Harkortsee is one of a total of six Ruhr reservoirs.
The lake has a good 3.1 million cubic meters of reservoir capacity. Its beginning in the course of the river is marked by the Ruhr Viaduct between Hagen and Herdecke. Its end is a weir below the Ruhr bridge of the B 226 between Hagen and Wetter with a dam height of almost eight metres. To the north, Lake Harkort is bordered by steep slopes of the Ardey Mountains, which offer wide views of the landscape.
