About This Dive Spot
Schwerborner Baggersee is a lake formed from gravel mining activities that took place approximately 18,000 years ago. The area consists of a nine-kilometer stretch with twelve gravel pits that have since filled with groundwater, making it a site for local recreational activities such as swimming, diving, and jet skiing. The underwater environment is home to various species, including river crayfish, mussels, sponges, and woodlice, as well as fish like carp, pike, and perch. A notable feature of this dive site is a plastic anatomical skeleton that has been submerged underwater, providing an interesting point of interest for divers.
