Munich: River Surfing in Munich–Surfing all you need to know

Munich: River Surfing in Munich–Surfing all you need to know

Munich enjoys the reputation as the world capital of river surfing. Although, in this regard Munich is primarily know for the famous Eisbach Wave, which has been portrayed in films, featured in commercials and used in uncountable social media posts, there are other river waves in the city as well, each one unique and suited for different surfing styles and skill levels. Unlike in the ocean, where surfing often depends on tides and seasonal weather phenomena, river surfing in Munich is possible all year round. Today, at any time of the year you will meet cyclists with a surfboard under their arm, heading for one of the waves. Seeing surfers roaming around town has become part of everyday life in Munich. The local community of surfers is probably the largest landlocked community in the world and there seems to be no end to the rise in popularity of river surfing and surfing in general. The Eisbach Wave The Eisbach Wave has become a popular tourist attraction in recent years and it’s an accelerator for the popularity of river surfing not only in Munich, but it inspires many other landlocked places all over Europe to create their own surfable standing wave. The wave is named after the small, man-made river Eisbach, which is a side arm of Munich’s main river, Isar. Eisbach Wave is centrally located next to museum Haus der Kunst and at the entrance to Munich's large inner-city park, Englischer Garten. Whether during the day or at night, in summer and even in the deepest winter, you will always meet surfers at the spot. E2 Wave (Dianabadschwelle) E2 Wave is the little sister of the Eisbach Wave and it’s located only a few hundred meters downstream. This wave is more mellow and not as powerful and steep. It’s popular among surfers, who enjoy a more laidback style of surfing. Although, getting into the wave is more of a challenge here. Most surfers use a drop-in (front-side for regular stance surfers) jumping in from the wall on the left side of the canal. However, a take-off is doable also on the far right side of the wave.
