From the Orelli fountain you can enjoy a fantastic panorama over Lake Zurich and the Alps beyond - Rigi, Pilatus, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. The fountain commemorates Susanna Orelli-Rinderknecht, who founded the Zurich Women's Association in 1894. The association offered women apprenticeships, social security and regular working hours - a progressive approach to professional equality at the time.

If you have foreign guests, the high trail on the Zürichberg is perfect. On the one hand, there is a "cable car", on the other hand, a great view of Lake Zurich and the Alps, and finally, a hike (which could be described more as a walk) can also be combined with a visit to the Zurich Zoo at the end. Tip: start the hike from the Rigiblick cable car, the panorama is more beautiful that way!
