Ecology

Operating a camping site in harmony with the protection of the surrounding area is very important to us. We therefore attach great importance to protecting nature in the best possible way, so we can enjoy it for a long time.

 

Camping Unterägeri is situated in the nature reserve of Lake Ägeri. The adjoining Hüribach is part of a cantonal water protection zone. The shore along the campsite also belongs to a protected reed belt at Lake Ägeri. Local flora and fauna develop splendidly and can be observed here. Last but not least, there is an archaeological zone in the Camping Delta.

 

The campsite Unterägeri obtains 80% of its electricity from hydropower and 20% from solar power. Hydroelectric power is generated from the nearby Lorzen power station. The solar energy also comes from the surrounding area.

The production of warm water and heat is carried out with fuel oil with the label low-sulphur eco fuel oil.

An environmentally friendly combination for efficient heating operation and economical water heating.

  • Close the tap when washing hands and soaping in between.
  • Use a toothbrush cup or turn off the water while brushing.
