Grynau Bridge and view of the Linth Canal at Grynau Castle

Highlight • Bridge

Always nice view from the bridge! On both sides of the bridge there are bike paths / walking paths along the Linth Canal, to Ziegelbrücke resp. up to the confluence with the Obersee, everything perfectly flat.

Linth Canal

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Pretty straight and a bit monotonous to cycle, but the view towards Glarus makes up for it.

Linth Canal

Highlight • River

The Linth Canal connects Lake Walen and Lake Zurich. Just like the waterway, you can also stroll between the two, following its peaceful course.

On the Lindt Canal you can cross the Lindt plain away from road traffic and ride along the easy gravel road on the dam towards Lake Walen or Lake Zurich. The route is well signposted.
