Germany's first and Europe's largest surfing centre, Surftown, is being built in Hallbergmoos, north of Munich. The ground-breaking ceremony took place at the end of July in the Munich Airpot Business Park. The 180-metre-long pool with a running wave is due to start trial operations in autumn 2023 - and will open to the public in spring 2024.

The waves range from 30 centimetres to a whopping 2.5 metres in height and can run into the artificial bay at intervals of ten seconds. The facility will cover a total of 20,000 square metres. "We are very pleased and proud that we are now getting closer to our dream of surfing in the Munich metropolitan region every day," says Chris Boehm-Tettelbach, CEO of SURFTOWN® MUC. "I would like to express my sincere thanks to the municipality of Hallbergmoos, which has taken on the challenges of our future project with a remarkable pioneering spirit - as well as the responsible authorities."

Thanks to a huge photovoltaic system and filtered water from the surrounding moorland, the facility also fulfils sustainable requirements.
