Welcome to our Weekend Adventure series, where we present an exciting selection of trails and roads around major European cities. These Tours are easily accessible from the city centre and can either be tackled in a single day or split up to provide a complete weekend experience. So pack your gear and go exploring, because this is where the adventure begins.

Excellent gravel trails can be found above the rooftops of Zurich. Just a few metres out of the bustling city, you'll find yourself on smooth gravel paths and the finest, most engaging trails. It’s a fantastic landscape with sensational panoramas over Lake Zurich, Lake Zug and the Alps.

In this Collection, we present three Tours that will immerse you in the panoramic surroundings of Zurich. On the loop between Lake Zurich and Lake Zug, you’ll discover a true gravel paradise on narrow paths and rolling trails. You’ll discover the Zurich Oberland in all its glory, with rolling undulations and flowing downhill riding. There’s a wealth of opportunity for adventure on the trails in the mountain ranges around Lake Zurich.

Curious? Then connect your komoot account with Suunto and get on the saddle. The trails are waiting for you!
