Pfäffikersee circular route no. 890
The popular circular route around Pfäffikersee in the Zurich Oberland leads through unique nature with typical moor plants, past the romantic farming village of Seegräben and back to the vibrant lake promenade of Pfäffikon ZH.
The starting point is Pfäffikon ZH, where you are just a stone's throw away in the middle of an enchanting lakeside landscape. A comfortable path leads past high reed belts and magnificent moor landscapes, which provide a habitat for countless animal and plant species. On the way, you can catch a particularly attractive view of the nature reserve on pretty wooden walkways.
A special eye-catcher is the farming village of Seegräben, which can be seen gently embedded in the intact nature. With the half-timbered houses typical of the region, the place offers a romantic view and transports the viewer back to earlier times. The wide meadows sway peacefully in the wind and on the lake side the variety of aquatic plants and native animals is impressive.
For a relaxing break, there are both cosy places in nature and restaurants along the route. A detour to the signposted adventure farm is also worthwhile. After the village of Auslikon, the stately Roman fort appears on the horizon as another eye-catcher before you reach Pfäffikon ZH again - showered with the natural experience.
