Dive-site story
On the southern shore of Lake Constance's Überlinger See, Wallhausen presents a sheer drop-off. Divers wade past a littoral shelf of gravel and mud before reaching a vertical wall that drops into dark water. Rock ledges, fissures, and silted terraces demand strict buoyancy control. Clear water prevails outside summer, though temperatures drop sharply below the thermocline.
