Dive-site story
Situated on Lake Lucerne directly in front of the historic glass factory, this shore dive features an underwater landscape scattered with glass remnants accumulated across decades of production. Divers descend along a silty slope that transitions into a steep wall dropping toward profound lake depths. The historic glass fragments, combined with encounters with typical alpine lake species, make the route uniquely atmospheric during the colder months.
