Swimming fun in the canton of Zug: from idyllic lakeside settings to modern outdoor pools

Despite its compact size, the canton of Zug offers an impressive variety of swimming options, providing the perfect way to cool off on hot summer’s days. Nestled in a picturesque landscape between Lake Zug and Lake Ägeri, the region is a true paradise for water lovers, families and competitive swimmers.

Although the two large lakes, with their idyllic lidos and lakeside facilities (the typical Zug ‘Badi’), which are often free to access, dominate the landscape, the canton has much more to offer. From modern outdoor swimming pools with slides and diving platforms for the whole family to heated indoor pools for training in winter – the infrastructure in the canton of Zug is superbly developed and easily accessible.
