Parking & attendance Around 26 parking spaces.

Entrance / Exit From the parking lot go left past the boat house through the park (beware of the dog poops lying around). At the end of it is a cove where you can enter (ca. 5 minute walk). Diving back along the wall you will recognize the exit point by the fact that the edge of the wall reaches 9m or that you bump into a ledge that juts into the open water and has the shape of a tongue.

Description Dive towards the middle of the lake. At 9 m starts the wall, which drops down to 20 m. If you follow this wall to the right towards Pfäffikon, both its upper and lower edges drop down to 47 m. The impressive conglomerate wall is full of cracks and crevices hosting many barbots. Diving back along the wall you will recognize the exit point by the fact that the edge of the wall reaches 9 m or that you bump into a ledge that juts into the open water and has the shape of a tongue.

Toilets Toilets in the yellow house opposite the boat house. If closed, a tree, a shrub, or a bush will have to do the trick.
