Broder, Mols
Silty Walensee trail dive with wrecks and boulders.
A shore-entry lake dive with a silty slope, boulders, and scattered wreck objects that reward precise buoyancy.
About Broder, Mols
Broder, Mols is a shore-entry freshwater dive on Walensee that starts with a silty slope and then works along a long scree field with large boulders. The route passes an old wooden boat, a cannon model on a prominent rock, a floating iron heart, and a car wreck farther along the line, so it feels more like a deliberately mapped underwater trail than a single feature dive. Visibility can change quickly if the silt is stirred, and the site rewards patient buoyancy control, conservative gas planning, and a calm return line.
