You can test a counter-current system in our show garden for a fortnight. Even at the lowest setting, two turbines generate a medium-strong current that is perfect for warming up.
Last year, we trialled the counter-current system in the Gartenvilla. Not even at half the maximum power, our show garden manager Urs Bertschinger was only able to swim against the strong current for a few seconds. Maybe you can do it longer with good technique and a little more muscle power?

Built-in counter-current systems
Are you planning a pool in your garden? Consider in advance whether a counter-current system should be installed so that it can be planned in good time. With this elegant solution, the system is integrated into the swimming pool and is flush with the pool. The counter-current system can then be easily controlled via an app.
Subsequent installation of a counter-current system
If you already have a pool, a counter-current system can also be retrofitted. This involves hanging the turbines over the edge of the pool and attaching them. We use this system for the Training Days in the Gartenvilla.
Alternatives to the counter-current system
A cheaper alternative is the pool trainer, which is attached outside the pool. With a belt, you swim in the opposite direction and are gently pulled back by the pool trainer so that you can complete your swimming training on the spot. Aquabikes can also be placed in the pool for easier exercises.

I am interested in your counter-current system. Can I test it?
Thank you very much!
Yes! The second training week will take place in our show garden in August. You can test a counter-current system between 20-24 August. You can reserve a spot here, free of charge and without obligation of course:
