About this dive site

This dive site, Forellensee, is a freshwater gravel pit in Germany, known for its well-structured underwater environment ideal for diver training and exploration. Navigation is made easy by three training platforms located at 6m, 9m, and 15m, all within a 100m radius from the entrance and interconnected by guidelines. The site's history as a gravel pit suggests a unique topography, now reclaimed by nature and optimized for diving.

The lake boasts a vibrant green belt at depths between 5 and 15 meters, which serves as a natural habitat for various fish species. Divers can expect to observe both large and small fish, particularly near the entrance area and around the 6-meter training platform, offering good opportunities for marine life observation.

Forellensee is suitable for diving year-round, with visibility typically ranging from 5 to 15 meters. It's an excellent location for both beginner and intermediate divers due to its clear platforms and guidelines, while more advanced divers can explore deeper sections reaching up to 28 meters further out. Freedivers will also find the varied depths and platforms beneficial for training.
