Kindli Brunnen
When conditions are favorable and depending on the season, divers may have the opportunity to spot a variety of freshwater fish such as perch, pike, and burbots.
From the parking lot, a well-trodden path winds its way down to the barbecue area. The entry point is located to the right of the pulpit. Divers have the option to explore in both directions. However, it's important to note that the impressive rock needle, which extends up to 12 meters below the water's surface, is strictly reserved for experienced divers. Approach the terrain at a right angle from the shore, with the rock approximately 32 meters away. Divers can make two circular tours around the needle, ascending to the top for a unique perspective. It's advisable to utilize compass navigation in the open water to navigate back to the shore, either on the left or right side of the bank.
Please exercise caution as you complete your dive and make sure to ascend slowly to the parking lot afterwards. Rapid ascent could potentially lead to decompression sickness (DCS).
This dive site in the water is located in Gersau, Schwyz, Switzerland, along Seestrasse. With a maximum depth of 31 meters and visibility reaching up to 6 meters, it is recommended for advanced and expert divers seeking an exciting and challenging underwater experience.
