Walks near Zürich – The Lägern
Sometimes the delights of Zürich just aren’t enough and you need to get out into the real world of nature.
One possibility, and this is quite handy if you have guests and need to get to the airport quickly afterwards, is to walk along the ridge that runs from Baden to Regensberg.
It’s not an easy walk though, so you might want to take walking shoes and leave Granny with the young ones.
It really is a very pointy ridge at times, and you can see it’s a long way down on both sides, so vertigo suffers might give it a miss too.
It’ll take a good couple of hours to walk the whole thing, more if you stop for a refreshing beer at the restaurant by the big ball that houses the radar for Zürich airport.
And of course, it might be best to get there by public transport if you don’t fancy walk back along the same route!
Notes on both Baden and Regensberg to follow.
