Steinbruch Horka

About this dive site

Explore the water around Saxony

Pike, perch, crabs and sharks have already been spotted here. The main focus here is definitely the underwater topography of a quarry, which offers a great panorama of the rocky basin from the outside. There is also some old mining equipment and an antique pump house to discover. Everyday objects such as beer benches, a cigarette machine, etc. were also sunk. The lake in Horka is an old quarry that has filled with water over time and has been open to diving for some time now. It generally boasts good visibility and a good infrastructure thanks to the local diving base, which also operates a modern Bauer filling station on site. The lake has mostly vertical walls in which the boreholes from the blasting can still be seen, as well as a beautifully overgrown shallow area.
