If you have ever dreamed about diving under the ice or you want to find the restful peace under water the best place would be the Päijänne on the Rocks ice diving event in Lake District in Finland.
This traditional winter fun event will be again from 18th to 21nd of March 2021 in Asikkala, Finland. The Lake Päijänne has drinkable water and the tranquillity under the ice will be amazing, as always. Welcome freedivers around the world to see this wonderful under ice world.
The event is for everyone who has a certification in freediving. There is no competition part of the challenge below. It is just to have fun together with fellow divers and enjoy the feelings in the nature’s own cathedral under the white ice cover. All special safety issues regarding diving under the ice will be covered in pre dive briefing. Remember to bring your lanyard.
Due the nature of the event the number of participants is limited. To make sure you will have a place, please, make your registration before 31st of January 2020. First come first served. Note! Due to corona virus restrictions the 2021 event will be cancelled.
Don’t be shy to ask if you have any requests or wishes. We would love to make this happening the best possible for you. For any contact send me an email, please.
