About this dive site

This dive site, located at Hechenberg on Achensee, offers a unique deep-water experience centered around the wreck of an old Dodge car at approximately 40 meters. Divers navigate across a gutter, passing a Madonna statue, to reach the main attraction. Below the Dodge wreck, the corresponding cargo cover can also be explored, adding to the intrigue of this cold-water site.

Marine life is generally scarce at the deeper depths of this dive site; hardly any fish are seen around the wreck. However, in the shallower areas, particularly while swimming out or in, divers may encounter a few fish species.

This dive site is recommended for advanced and technical divers due to the significant depth. No specific best time to visit is mentioned, but divers should be prepared for cold water conditions typical of an alpine lake. The main highlights are the wreck and the unique underwater topography.
