About Dongelberg
Dongelberg is a deep quarry dive in Jodoigne with steep walls, caverns, and submerged objects that make the layout easy to remember. Divers come here for the quarry terrain: cars, a van, a plane, and other training features turn it into a structured dive rather than an open-water drift. Expect cold inland water, paid entry, and fixed opening hours. It suits steady navigation, buoyancy practice, and divers who like depth and a defined route.
