Dive-site story
Named after Switzerland's famous alpine peak, this Lake Zurich dive site features a distinctive submerged rock formation rising sharply from the silty lakebed. Divers encounter steep inclines and rock faces, which serve as gathering points for local fish species. Good buoyancy control is essential here to prevent disturbing the fine sediment on the bottom.

Seasonality
