Why this trip

Zurich surprises active travellers: between lake, old town and hills lie paths that suit every level of fitness. From the Lindenhof, a quiet square above the Limmat, a round through the old town to the Grossmünster begins. The route is flat enough for a start and offers plenty to see. The Üetliberg above the city serves as a rewarding goal for everyone who wants to collect ascent without leaving the city.

If you want more movement, walk along the water or climb into the hills above the city. The Zurich Zoo is an excursion for groups with children, and the Paradeplatz shows the urban side of the city. Fountain water along the way saves luggage. From June to September the conditions for outdoor activities are best.

Schaffhausen, Lucerne, Engelberg and Basel lie close as neighbours, so that Zurich offers itself as a starting point for tours into the mountains, for example to Engelberg. How much city and how much Alps fit into your trip is something you clarify beforehand with Adventure in the video call.
