Eisbach, River surfing spot in Altstadt-Lehel, Germany
The Eisbach features a standing wave measuring one meter in height, created by underwater stone steps near the Haus der Kunst art museum.
River surfing at the Eisbach began in 1972, leading to the development of specialized techniques for wave manipulation through submerged planks and ropes.
Munich residents gather daily at the Eisbach bridge to observe skilled surfers navigating the permanent wave in the center of the English Garden.
Swimming and surfing in the Eisbach require extreme caution due to shallow waters, strong currents, and hidden underwater structures.
The Eisbach wave maintains consistent surfing conditions throughout the year, enabling winter surfing sessions in water temperatures near freezing point.
