Adventure & Sports - Zug (Zurich (Region))

Lake Zug is located in the heart of Central Switzerland, in the cantons of Zug, Schwyz and Lucerne. Set amid charming hilly countryside, this picturesque region presents many and varied opportunities for walking, cycling and rollerblading. For example, an energetic rollerblading excursion can be rounded off with a relaxing boat ride and a piece of typical Zug cherry cake.

Zug's close association with the lake is documented in the Fishing Museum. The fish-breeding section is of particular interest for both adults and children. From November till May the development from egg to baby fish can be followed in the internationally-known fish breeding jar, a Zug invention. For the young visitor there is a lot to discover: for example, fishing equipment from days-gone-by up to present day. There is even a fully equipped dug-out to explore. The museum was founded in 1888.
