With a volume of 95 mio m³, it is larger than other hydroelectric reservoirs in the region: Oberaarsee, Räterichsbodensee and Gelmersee. The dam was completed in 1932 and is operated by Kraftwerke Oberhasli AG (KWO). It is located in the municipality of Guttannen.
Totensee
Totensee (or Totesee) is a small natural lake at the Grimsel Pass in the canton of Valais, Switzerland. It is used as a reservoir and drained into Grimselsee. In November 2006, the lake's entire trout population died, possibly due to algae. The name Totensee is said to be derived from soldiers of Duke Berchtold V of Zähringen driven into the lake by the people of Valais.

The reservoir's volume is 13 million m³ and its surface area 0.645 km². The lake may be reached by the Gelmerbahn from Handegg, Guttannen at 1,412 m. The funicular's track with a length of 1,028 m has a maximum inclination of 106%.
