Entry & Exit

Entry is from the pier by the water in Kilchberg. A common approach is to swim on the surface toward the offshore buoys before descending, because the immediate shoreline section is relatively flat and less interesting.

Underwater profile

  • Gentle, silty slope near shore
  • Small steeper rock sections starting near the buoys
  • Main attraction: a sunken rowboat at about 34-38 m

Safety notes

  • Keep your decompression limits and gas reserve under strict control when visiting the rowboat depth.
  • Depth and task loading can increase quickly when visibility drops.

Facilities

  • Paid public parking nearby - but it has only a limited number of spots
  • Toilet available at the nearby boathouse in the park area
  • Large reacreational area with banks, playground, tennis court and beautiful view on Alps
