Deep shore-entry lake dive with an underwater forest.
Murner See, Süd is a shore-entry freshwater dive in a former brown coal mine lake. It suits advanced and technical divers more than beginners because the site is deep and orientation can be tricky. Visibility can be decent in the acidic water, but fish life is sparse and the underwater forest is the main feature. Plan it around the approved entry points and the local dive ordinance.
