A ship on wheels leaves Zug

Andreas Busslinger

Lake Zug Shipping has sold the MS Schwyz to Schiffbetrieb Walensee AG. But how does a 31-meter-long, seven-meter-wide, and over 100-ton ship get from one lake to the other? On wheels – and over the Hirzel. The difficult task, however, was to navigate the ship gently and slowly around the houses of the city of Zug.
