Entry & Exit

At the end of parking place, left from the pier, follow the foot path along the lake. Go through the grass area at the end. Between the trees, you see gentle entry into the lake.

Underwater profile

If you dive left, you follow the rugged stone wall into the depth (up to 40 meters). You return on the top of the wall (about 12 meters).

Tech divers only

If you go right, follow the wall into the depth. At about 40 meters you’ll see small overhang. At about 50 meters, about 6-8 meters from the wall, theres a dummy in punk clothing, which is a kind of local attraction. Follow wall to the top, there’s a small plateau on 30 meters with ‘grill station’. From that place, you need to follow muddy botton up (because of deco).

Safety notes

Big depths - watch your decompression and obey your limits.
