Neufelder See – Strandbad
The second main entry is at the municipal lido at the south end of the lake, where Tauchsport Lorenc has its base. Divers describe a series of platforms from 5 m to about 20 m, partly linked by lines, plus pipes, a sunken rowing boat and an old bathtub at 12 m used as a meeting point. Near the 20 m platform the 'Kohlenwand' marks the deepest part of the former pit at about 22–23 m. A northern route follows a steep wall to about 20 m below a pondweed meadow at around 5 m.

- Unverified: Platform depths and the Kohlenwand description come from diver reports (taucher.net); the lido's diver tariff could not be confirmed from an official source.
- Tips: In the bathing season the lido is busy and charges admission; divers have reported a separate diver tariff. Early-summer visibility can drop to about 1 m when carp stir up the bottom.
