Wreck diving in Norway: Ju-52 in Hartvikvatnet (Narvik)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- North of Narvik lies a lake which was used as an frozen airfield during WWII. Some of the Junkers 52 transport airplanes that landed here sunk in this lake as the ice melted.
While several planes were salvaged one lies very easily accessible near the eastern shore of the lake in a depth of only a few meters.

Impressive. Nice music too.
Good old Ju-52. I flew twice on it. Good video.
Wow, nice n clear vid...........
Beautifully shot video!🙂
Now - Thats cool - great diving..
I wonder if this 52 was one of the planes carrying mountain troops to Narvik , to bail out German paratroopers there, or was it one of the planes bearing the paratroopers? Maybe a plane used to drop supplies to the paratroopers? Are there any suspected remains on board? If so, is this a war grave?
Always liked the huge windshield on this plane. It gave the cockpit a very majestic appearance. Great job, boys. Keep these videos going. Respect from USA
I liked the video 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Great video! And what incredible vis, definitely a bit envious of that dive. The aircraft is in good condition all things considered?
Nice video well done. I am going to Narvik in the next few weeks. Can you give me some directions or link how to find this dive site? Depth is 8-9 meters? Where to park the car. Really appreciate thank you
Thanks
The exact position is N68°33.252 E17°42.118. You can see the wreck even on the satelite image on norgeskart:

It is possible to park at the little creek east of the wreck - depends on the weather (and on your car) how far you can go. You have to swim (or walk) the rest in the creek.

Very nice video. How can I find this lake (lake name). it may be nice freedive place
The lake is here: www.google.de/maps/place/%C3%81raj%C3%A1vri/@68.554525,17.673687,15z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x45dba33261f9e597:0x3c91105d2f9a1d6f!8m2!3d68.557615!4d17.6813958
thanks
BTW - it is really a nice place for freediving. It is rather shallow, mostly clear water and close to shore. When I was there in August I met two freedivers from Finnland.
thanks bro for info , very intresting place, how abowt water temprature in this lake?
In summer it was between 12 and 14°C, I guess it is much colder in winter and in spring, when the ice on the mountains is melting
Are these from the Invasion or the Occupation. I guess former
Looks like someone salvaged stuff from this plane by himself.
Or a fire got it on the way down, and the rest was lost upon impact.

Waooo
Bring it up and restore it.
At least one plane from this lake was taken up. This one (and one deep in the lake) is still there
What did you film with?
That was a GoPro H3+
UnderwaterNerd Very nice quality, like you videos... I too dive, most in Norway.. What kind of lights do you use?
Thanks, Tom. I have a single 50W HID flood light. Normally I have it in one hand and the camera in the other.
UnderwaterNerd That is impressive, really nice wide beam on it..
Any plans regarding trying to save it..?
I am not aware of any plans to salvage this plane. Last year some divers found another one in the same lake. I know in the past two of them have been recovered
Ok, but thanks for the video, that was really cool....
