The leisure sector is demanding more government support following the introduction of stricter entry requirements.
The Swiss Federation of Leisure Sites says the introduction of the 2G rules was brought in too fast for the companies to react and will mean a cut of 20% in turnover.
The trade body adds the time of the year is adding to the crisis. Many leisure sites rely on the holidays to boost annual takings – but that looks likely to be lost this season.
The director of Aquaparc on the shores of Lake Geneva, Sonia Vandenabeele, says on the first day of the new rules, attendance was down by half of what they expected at this time of year.
Leisure companies are calling for talks with the government and cantons early next year to come up with a recovery plan for the sector.
