As the weather gets warmer and the memory of the recent storms fade, the Swiss Lifesaving Society, warn it’s still too dangerous to go for a swim in the rivers and lakes.
Over the last two days, two have died in the Rhine in canton Zurich.
The society says you shouldn’t head for the water yet.
Levels remain high and flows are strong, making it difficult to exit the lake in areas that are normally safe.
There’s also a chance of driftwood which could cause injury.
The Lifesaving Society says it will still be several days before it will be safe.
