The harbor of Cham offers a great view not only of Lake Zug, but also of the surrounding mountains, such as Rigi and Zugerberg. There are various seating options (benches, wooden loungers, directly on the meadow, etc.), as well as enough space to stop with bikes and enjoy the great view. In summer, the kiosk-restaurant "Hirsgartenbad" is open.

A beautiful view of the Flachsee lake, which is actually an artificial lake on the Reuss, in every season. A paradise for birds and a place to linger
