Thanks! Yes, me too. I think very few people do dive here, because the water is so cold. There is no fishing allowed and you can't break anything (twigs for example). But I guess if a lot of people would start to dive and other people would be disturbed by it, they could add a "no diving sign". However, I hope people respect the nature and do dive with caution so they don't have to put up a sign :)
@travelons @travelons jag noterande att texten om att det inte är okej att dyka där är överstruket - så jag bara måste fråga: har ni insett att det ÄR OKEJ att simma/dyka där efter att texten är skriven? Eller finns det någon annan anledning till att texten är överstruket? 🐟
Travel Ons, its really great to see källorna documented and appreciated. It is indeed a very beautiful place and not many people from the city know about this spring nor about the nature reserve Färnebofjärden. It is however not allowed to dive or swim in the spring. Just because there is no sign does not mean it is allowed. I am raised in the area and this spring has been giving clean fresh water my whole life , during my parents lives and my grand parents lives and for many years before they existed. This is only possible because people respected the spring and did not make it their playground. It would be great if all visitors could do the same.
Thank you for your comment :) Yes, I've been informed by others regarding this rule. However, I've seen others before me dive and document the spring below the surface, so it's not the first time someone didn't know about the rules. A sign would be helpful if this actually is an issue. What happens if a bird och mouse dies in the spring? Wouldn't that contaminate the water 1000 times more compared to someone being in the water for 30 min? Note that I did respect the spring by being careful not to break any twigs, move or remove anything. And I went in the water early in the morning when no one else was around. If someone else would be there, I wouldn't have gone in :)
By the way :) I added a disclaimer to the video description. Hopefully it will inform people about the rules: "DISCLAIMER: It is not allowed to dive in this spring. I didn't know about this rule before making this video. DO NOT dive here."
Måste dock säga att simma i kallkällorna är inte tilllåtet då det är dricksvatten och är väldigt kännsligt för bakterier. Gäller alla källor som är kallkällor och rent grundvatten
Intressant! Det visste jag inte. Det är väldigt vanligt att man dyker i källor i USA. Jag tänker om en fågel eller ett större djur drunknar i källan måste det skapa enormt mycket mer bakterier än en dykare med våtdräkt skapar?
The trouts look amazing!
Yeah, it was unreal!
Love the Video! Very nice! Great intro. Would love to join you one day! 😀👋
Thanks! :) Yes, we'll make that happen!
wow, really amazing. I am surprised that you are allowed to dive there! nice scenes!!!

Travel Ons ur not allowed to dive in there bc its a ”källa”. my grandparents live 2km from there
If you have any questions about Sweden, Stockholm or Ingbo Källor. Feel free to ask me :)
How cold is it? Is possible to snorkel without wetsuit? Antar att du är svensk så... Hur kallt är vattnet? Går det att snorkla utan våtdräkt?
