Winterthur Cycleways

Highlight • Cycleway

The city of Winterthur has really invested a lot in its infrastructure and one can see this immediately. Well marked cycleways which completely traverse the city from North to South and East to West. Cycleways are well marked. Even though there is some heavy traffic on some routes, the numerous radar robots keep traffic to a slow pace.

Dinhard Church

Highlight • Religious Site

Dinhard is first mentioned in a document as Thynhart in 1275. The important humanist Jakob Wiesendanger, called Ceporinus (1499–1525), who is commemorated by a memorial stone by the church, came from Dinhard.

Thur Canal (Inner Canal)

Highlight • River

From the inland canal you have a very nice view of the renatured Thur and its ever-changing course. With a little luck and patience you can also watch birds.

Bridge to the Beaver Trail

Highlight • Bridge

As far as I know, you can drive on it, just on the trail (which applies everywhere anyway).
Update: Is actually a general driving ban, was there on the weekend (Feb 2021). Measured on the basis of the many tracks, only very few stick to it & I have never seen the police there :-)
