Dive-site story
Strick is a classic Lake Zug shore dive characterized by steep submerged topography and clay formations. Dropping away from the shoreline into dark, cool water, the route follows a dramatic slope stepped with ledges, boulder clusters, and sunken logs. Divers who enjoy freshwater technical or cold-water profiles use this location for deep training and night dives.
