Fernsteinsee

The privately owned Samarangersee is the little brother of the Fernsteinsee and is considered one of the most beautiful freshwater lakes in Europe. The lake, which lies at an altitude of around 1000 m, shows a landscape of sunken trees, which form a fairytale underwater world through their growth.

North of the Fernpass, at almost 1100 m, lies the 25 m deep Blindsee Lake. High fish abundance, sunken landscapes of roots and trees in combination with unbelievable visibility allow for fantastic dives. Tthere is also a lot to discover for the macro-lovers.

Chargeable sunbathing lawn for divers; separate chargeable car park; because of the campsite always well-disposed holiday guests, relaxed atmosphere; beautiful mountain and lake scenery. The attractions (up to 32m depth) are close to the entry point, therefore comfortable diving; drifting fishing lines possible.

In the middle of the Reutte nature park region lies the Urisee bathing lake. With visibility between 3 and 20 m at a depth of almost 40 m, sunken trees, various fish, and smaller sights offer a lot of variety. Exercise platforms allow exercises to be carried out in a nature-friendly manner.

Directly south of the village of Walchensee there is a parking lot from which a trail leads to the site entrance. Several underwater springs usually provide good visibility here. You can see a lot of sunken scraps, a small wreck, and beautiful trees on the other side of the bay.

On the south side of the lake, about 2 km after the toll station in the direction of Jachenau, you will find the entrance “Am Hackl“ at a large parking lot. At a depth of 10 m you will find the wreck of a VW Beetle to the left, in front and behind it trees and rocks.

The entrance to this site is located on the southern shore of Lake Walchensee, off the toll road to Jachenau, and can be reached via a small staircase from the parking lot. Underwater you will find rugged rock faces and large underwater rocks (20 to 40 m deep). In the crevices of the rocks you can find large eel rods.

Slightly hidden, next to the first roofing of the road south of Urfeld there is a small parking lot. This is the entrance to the Walchensee. On the right, from 5-10 m (depending on the season), a steel strip leads to an old car wreck at ~35 m, on the left it goes directly into a steep face.

The Walchensee is 800m long and 130m deep. One hour south of Munich, it is a beautiful day trip. The lake is rich in fish and has good visibility. From the car wreck to the steep face there is something for everyone - local dive centers will be happy to help you choose a suitable entry point!
