Ottenstein Reservoir, Reservoir in Lower Austria, Austria

The Ottenstein Reservoir stretches across 4.5 square kilometers along the Kamp River, featuring forested banks and numerous secluded bays throughout its expanse.

The construction of the Ottenstein Reservoir in the 1950s established it as the largest of three reservoirs on the Kamp River for hydroelectric power generation.

The reservoir attracts numerous visitors who participate in water sports, with local organizations offering sailing courses and equipment rentals throughout the season.

Fishing permits for catching pike, carp, perch, and zander can be obtained from the Ottenstein Forestry Office or the Niedernondorf farm operation.
