About Weissensee
High-altitude alpine freshwater lake in Carinthia with clear water, sheltered shore access, and a mix of submerged forest sections, rocky edges, and steeper drop-offs. The lake supports relaxed lake dives as well as guided boat or ice-diving sessions, so planning is mostly about cold-water protection, seasonal ice cover, and choosing the right entry for the day.
