About Schwerborner Baggersee
Schwerborner Baggersee is a former gravel quarry that filled with groundwater and became a local recreation lake near Erfurt. It is used for swimming and diving, and the underwater attraction includes a submerged anatomy skeleton along with freshwater fish life. The site is best treated as a structured lake dive: calm, shallow, and more about training, practice, and relaxed rec dives than big underwater scenery.
