Gasselterveld is a freshwater site located within the Vinkeveense Plassen, a network of flooded peat lakes. The site features a reef structure and reaches depths of up to 50 metres. While shallower sections are suitable for beginner divers, the significant depth requires careful planning and experience. Divers enter from the shore and encounter mild currents. Visibility at this location is variable, and cold water is a consistent factor, necessitating appropriate thermal protection. Boat traffic is a notable hazard at this site; divers should always deploy a surface marker buoy during ascent. As facilities are not confirmed, visitors should arrive self-sufficient with all necessary equipment.
