The Dorfbachtobel leads from Meilen up to the hamlet of Toggwil. It surprises with an unpredictable route and an ambience that is reminiscent of the valleys in Ticino. Crystal clear water rushes over eroded stones, dense, wildly overgrown slopes, waterfalls and stone bridges. Idyllic. Refreshingly cool in summer, now sunny and warm in spring.

It's really amazing, 10 minutes out of the town and you're in a different world.

Hiking

One of several ravines on the right bank of Lake Zurich. Especially worthwhile in spring: the rushing stream carries a relatively large amount of water, the birds chirp particularly loudly and the still small foliage lets the light of the sun and enchants the many waterfalls.
