Best for intermediate divers, 20-40m, shore entry.
Wasserfall is a shore-entry wall dive located in Lake Thun, Switzerland. The site features a wall structure that descends between 20 and 40 metres, with an average depth of 30 metres. Visibility is consistently 10 metres, and the absence of current allows for a controlled dive profile. Due to the depth and cold water temperatures, which can reach 4°C in winter, this site is suited for intermediate divers. Thermal protection such as a drysuit or thick wetsuit is recommended. Divers should monitor their proximity to the wall to avoid entanglement. Species recorded around this area include snail, common perch, burbot, barbel, and American crayfish.
