    Road cycling

    This Glatt cycling path is a very nice cycleway which leads in and our of Zürich. It is mostly paved with the exception between Oberglatt and Glattbrugg it is a dirt path. The paved section from Oberglatt is very smooth and well maintained. If one is planing a tour in the direction of North Switzerland, avoid it on Sunday after 12:00 as there are so many walkers with families that sometimes can cause delays.

    This former viaduct spans the Glatt just before it flows into the Rhine, where the river marks the border between Switzerland and Germany. The structure stands impressively.

    One of the original stone arch bridges from the Nordost Bahn, one of Switzerland’s pioneering railroads in the late 1800s built this bridge. It always makes for a good back drop. Two of Zürichs popular cycling routes cross here, the Glattuferweg and the Swiss National Route 2. The Glattuferweg is a main artery which leads to the outskirts of Zürich and opens the door to continue further into the city. The Swiss National Route 2 runs all the way from Andermatt via Chur, St. Margreten and Schaffhausen to Basel. An enjoyable and for the most part easy after Chur.
