オーベレンクシュトリンの湖・トップ20

An interesting contraption, especially when it's running. From April to mid-October, it runs daily at 11:00 AM, 3:00 PM, and 7:00 PM for 8 minutes each time.

Easy and relaxed cycling

The Zürichhorn, together with the Blatterwiese, forms a large green area right by the lake. Here you can admire some monuments or works of art, such as the Eureka by Jean Tinguely, or simply lie down on the grass and relax.

I would have liked to see the idle engine in operation; I can't imagine anything moving in it.

Consisting of the Upper and Lower Katzensee, there is a small seaside resort with a restaurant. In the idyllic landscape around the lake you can often observe a variety of birds.

Limmat Bridge

The Bürkliplatz was created after the bulwarks of the former city fortifications were demolished. The city engineer Arnold Bürkli was responsible for the construction of the quay from 1882 to 1887. Land was heaped up on the lake shore and the quay bridge created a continuous lake promenade with avenues, meadows and parks. Today, the Bürkliplatz is a shipping pier and the starting point for tours on Lake Zurich. The square is also a versatile event location: the “Bürklimäärt” vegetable market takes place here twice a week, and the flea market on Saturdays in summer. The square also serves as the start and finish point for many sporting events.
