Zug

Sailing instructor in Zug

Zug is compact enough that the lake, the old town and the base of the Zugerberg are all within a short ride of each other. The lakeside path is flat and sheltered; the Zugerberg behind gives a short, steep climb that is ideal for interval work and is the default hill session for everyone who trains here.

The town's commodity trading and corporate population books differently from elsewhere: more lunchtime slots, more two-person sessions with colleagues, and more sessions arranged at short notice. English is the working language for most of our coaches here.

Sailing

The lakes are not the sea, and that is the point

Lake Geneva, Lucerne and Lugano all produce their own thermal winds that build through the afternoon and die at dusk, which makes them unusually good places to learn: reliable breeze, no tide, and land always in sight. It also makes them tricky in ways the open sea is not, and local knowledge is most of what you are paying for.

Boat and equipment

The boat is arranged as part of the session. Bring a windproof layer, sunglasses with a strap and shoes with a non-marking sole. Everything else, including buoyancy aids, comes with the boat.

Common questions

Do I need experience?

No. First-timers are a normal booking and the session is built around it.

Can we come as a family?

Yes — say how many of you and the ages, and we will match the boat and the instructor accordingly.

What if there is no wind?

Your instructor decides on the morning. If the day is unusable we move it at no cost; there is no point paying to drift.
