This dive site is located on the south shore of Lake Weissensee, a sunken forest that’s accessible daily via our dive shuttle. The route leads through a picturesque mountain stream into the surrounding nature park. Explore the three bays with remarkable natural light effects through submerged tree roots and lush reeds. Beneath a submerged tree stand, you'll find numerous large Perch (Dobbel), basking in the backscattered sunlight. Curious Pike are likely to accompany your quiet, weightless dive. The maximum depth of this site is 24 meters. It’s an excellent location for underwater photography and particularly well-suited for beginners and underwater photographers. This spot is also frequently used for OWD course dives.
