Zurich for mountain climbers

Enough shopping and culture? In Zurich it is easy to get a short distance from the city and gaze at Zurich from above. Outdoor fans will get their money's worth when hiking up Zurich's local mountain, the Uetliberg. The view of the city, the mountains and the lake is priceless!

Tropical feeling in the city

Get out of the city and into the tropics - this is also possible in Zurich. The Masoala Hall at Zurich Zoo is modelled on the habitat of the Masoala National Park in Madagascar. With its tropical flora and fauna, it ensures a varied and exciting holiday even in rainy weather.
