Welcome to Zug. Visit the old town of Zug, founded around 1200, and stay here. The city on the lake is easy to distinguish from the city that was generously expanded in the 16th century. Four fortification towers of the last city wall are still preserved. The city is located on Lake Zug. Zug was an important freight transshipment point on the trade route between the cities of Zurich and Lucerne. The people of Zug learned the dangers of water twice, namely in 1435 and 1887, when parts of the city sank into the lake. Nevertheless, the lake is the most beautiful thing about Zug. Not only are the sunsets fascinating, but also the changing moods at any time of day throughout the year.

Brüggli Lakeside Bath on Lake Zug

Highlight • Beach

The Brüggli seaside resort is a great day trip destination or a lovely place to stop for a rest during a bike ride. The freely accessible beach attracts visitors with its large lawn and shallow shore, which allows easy access to the water. There are also fire pits if you want to have a barbecue.

If you are on a multi-day bike tour, you can also use the seaside resort as a stopover, as there is a campsite next door where you can stay overnight.
