User reviews

"The beach has a secluded ambiance that makes it feel like a personal garden rather than a public area. It's an ideal location for indulging in activities such as yoga, paddle boarding, swimming, and enjoying some ice cream. However, it's worth noting that there is a 2chf entrance fee per adult."

Larissa Monteverde

"We stumbled upon this lovely lake on a hot day and were pleasantly surprised. Despite its small size, it's a great spot for swimming and taking in the beautiful view of Rigi. It's not crowded, which may be due to Covid restrictions, but we thoroughly enjoyed our refreshing dip."

What to do in Seebad Walchwil? Are there any attractions or entertainments in region?

If you like outdoor activities, the Seebad Walchwil can offer such an experience. In particular - SUP surfing. The beach stands out for an excellent base for this kind of sport. And the bonus is the gorgeous scenery from the water. Just try, we recommend it!

It is difficult to think of any entertainment and activities when you are on the beach. To swim, to sunbathe, to drink a couple of cocktails, again to swim and again to sunbathe, the variety usually is very limited. But on Seebad Walchwil you can test yourself in such an activity as water jumping. It's fun and it's scary, the rest you have to experience on your own.

In most cases, the question What to do on Seebad Walchwil implies the presence of any excursions or attractions near the beach. Of course in this area there are lots of places to go besides the beach. There are historical, entertainment and even gastronomic tours offered by local guides. More information is better to clarify directly on the spot.
