Küsnacht Erratic Boulder

Highlight • Natural Monument

The dragon's head (official name) hasn't been around for that long. Only since 2013. He witnessed a huge rock fall. The boulder is made of Nagelfluh (Wulp gravel).

The village brook ripples in many waterfalls leisurely through the Küsnachter Tobel towards Zürisee. The natural pools, which arise between the individual waterfalls, offer themselves on hot summer days, especially for children as a good swimming.

Wulp Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

The floor plan of the old castle can be seen through the lower wall remains. There are barbecue areas and seating and is a nice place in the middle of the forest for a break.

Alexander's Stone in the Küsnachter Tobel

Highlight • Natural Monument

The mighty boulder was transported here over 20,000 years ago by the Linth Glacier from the Glarus Alps - an incredible journey. Now it is immovable and impressive in the middle of Küsnachter Tobel.

July 29, 2025,Tobel statt Trubel – Wandern in Küsnacht

A peaceful vacation for two. Visiting friends in Switzerland – it couldn't have started much better.

On the first day, we took a short trip from Küsnacht near Zurich on the punctual (!) Swiss public transport – short, comfortable, and relaxed. Only Komoot wasn't in the mood at first, so the recording started a little later.
