About Pichlingersee
Pichlingersee is an artificial freshwater lake in southeast Linz that works as an easy shore-access dive and chill spot. The lake sits in a managed recreation area with parking, food, playgrounds, and a campsite, and divers regularly report pike, carp, perch, eels, tench, sturgeon, and occasional large catfish. Calm water, gentle slopes, and a clear late-spring-to-early-autumn window make it a practical place for relaxed training dives.
