About this dive site

This dive site features a dramatic vertical wall, known as the 'Chocolate Wall', that drops into the dark, cold depths of Lake Zurich. It is a premier Swiss freshwater dive celebrated for its impressive geology and sheer drop-off. The main attraction is the unique topography rather than abundant aquatic life.
