Ein Paradies für Wassersportfreunde ist der Stausee Obermaubach, der zum Paddeln, Rudern oder auch Tretbootfahren einlädt. Hier steht direkt am See ein Bootsverleih zur Verfügung. Darüber hinaus besteht die Möglichkeit zum Segeln oder Surfen. Den passionierten Petrijünger locken die verschiedensten Fischarten im Stausee. Gesundheitsbewusste können sich in einer KNEIPP-Anlage fit halten oder sich auf einen der zwei KNEIPP-Wanderwege begeben.

Errichtet in den Jahren 1933/34 durch den Wasserverband Stausee Obermaubach, dient er gemeinsam mit dem Staubecken Heimbach dem Wochenausgleich des Spitzenstrom-Wasserbedarfs der Wasserkraftwerke Heimbach und Schwammenauel. Seit 1968 liefert ein Kraftwerk zu Füßen des Damms mit einer Leistung von 600 kW Strom an das RWE-Netz.
