Dive-site story
Located along the southern shore of Lake Walen, Hafen Murg offers typical alpine lake diving with direct shore access. The bottom transitions from a shallow gravel shelf near the harbor area into steep silt slopes that descend into deep, dark water. Divers encounter submerged tree branches, discarded harbor remnants, and the occasional sunken rowboat, providing habitat for native freshwater species.
