Dive-site story
Located along the eastern shore of Lake Zug, Lothenbach provides easy shore access into an alpine lake environment. Divers descend along a sloping bed of gravel and mud that quickly gives way to a steep underwater face. Sunken tree trunks and historical debris dot the incline, offering shelter to local freshwater fauna.
