Chlausenegg, also known as Känzeli, is a very attractive dive spot. It has deep interesting stone walls and a big sunken tree in the deep.

Entry & Exit

Entry through a ladder mounted on a stone wall. You go directly in open water, be careful with your fins. Exit with the same ladder, there’s a possibility for emergency exit about 25 minutes in direction north (Walchwil) - there’s a small parking niche with a path going into water.

Parking

Small parking for 5-6 cars, please park perpendicularly, otherwise there will be not enough place.

Dive description

You go into water, dive in direcation north (right side), after about 5 minutes you go into the deep. On 40 meters, there’s a huge hanging tree, anchored with roots into the stone wall. There’s a lot of stuff that divers have hanged on it. The wall ends just below the tree - there’s nothing more to see there. Then you go at about 20 meters, after a few minutes you see another trees - but much smaller. You turn around and slowly return at 5-8 meters - at night a lot of fishes are hanging on the wall. You can also meet big pikes. After you return to the entry, marked by a long line going down to 12 meters, you can do a small round in direction south - around a plateau with a lot of plats growing at 2-3 meters.

Hazards

  • depth at the entry - you go directly into open water
  • sloppery path - be very careful walking up/down

I've visited Chlausenegg at the end of April 2026. I've heard that the sight is excelent, and the water was really crystal clear.
