Cassiopeia Steg on Lake Zurich

Highlight • Bridge

The 2.8-metre-wide and 284-metre-long Cassiopeia footbridge closes a gap so that walkers and runners can walk almost the entire urban left bank of the lake without interruption.

View from the Kibag Diving Platform, Lake Zurich

Highlight • Viewpoint

The concrete factory of the Kibag company is located in this beautiful and unique quiet corner of Lake Zurich. It reveals a wonderful view of the mountains of Central Switzerland and the end of Lake Zurich.

Running track by the lake

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A nice running place beside the lake. I personally recommend running here in the evening.

Utoquai Lakeside Promenade

Highlight • Trail

As the name suggests, promenades are the order of the day here. But the lake promenade is also very good as a promising running route.
