The project for the new pier in Uttwil began in 2010 and was completed with a length of 80 meters and a width of 3.5 meters. The Swiss Lake Constance Shipping Company added the pier to its schedule as of May 1, 2011. Source: https://www.uttwil.ch/themen-a-z/tourismus/schifffahrt-und-steg.html/173

The view from Ruggisberg is breathtaking: on one side the glittering Lake Constance stretches out, on the other the imposing peaks of the Alpstein rise into the sky. The landscape seems almost magical, especially at sunrise or sunset.
