Munich
Munich is not located near the coast, so it doesn’t offer natural waves for surfing. However, Munich offers a unique standing river wave surf experience that is world famous. Two Eisbach waves located in the English Garden – one of the largest inner-city parks in the world (larger than Central Park in New York or Hyde Park in London) – and Floßlände first established “riversurfing” and then made it respectable which is the reason why Munich is considered the Hawaii of river surfers. In addition, Jochen Schweizer offers a perfect indoor city wave nearby and in 2024 SURFTOWN® MUC is expected to open its doors: a 20,000 sqm artificial surfing facility just outside Munich IN HALLBERGMOOS that is unique in Europe.
Wave Pool
A wave pool or wave park is an artificial pool designed to create waves for surfing. Unlike traditional ocean waves that are formed by natural forces such as wind, tides, and currents, wave pools use technology to generate consistent and controlled waves.
The wave pool technology typically involves using large pumps to push water towards a specially designed pool, where it is forced through a series of chambers that create a wave. These waves can be adjusted in height, speed, and shape to provide different surfing experiences for different levels of surfers.
Surfing wave pools are popular in areas where there is no access to the ocean or where the natural surf conditions are not consistent enough to provide a reliable experience for surfers. They are also used for surf competitions and training purposes as they provide a controlled environment for surfers to practice and improve their skills.
