Steep Lake Zug wall dive for experienced divers
Grafstatt is a steep freshwater wall dive on Lake Zug in Walchwil, reached by a tight shore entry from a narrow roadside parking strip by the pumphouse. The wall drops quickly into deep water and demands careful buoyancy, a calm exit plan, and comfort with cool, changeable lake conditions. It is a classic Swiss lake wall for experienced divers who want a simple access route and a serious underwater profile.
Site Conditions
Safety Notes
Treat Grafstatt as an experienced-diver lake wall: keep gas and buoyancy conservative, and plan the exit as carefully as the entry.
Access Restrictions
Use the designated roadside access and do not use the private-property stair beside the boathouse.
Legal Notes
A private-property stair at the boathouse is off-limits, so keep clear of the property boundary and follow local access guidance.
