Linth Canal

Highlight • River

Very nice in the area of Ziegelbrücke - Weesen, a bit monotonous down below. No traffic on the gravel road.

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.

Linth Canal

Highlight • River

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.

Highlight • Monument

Always beautiful views from the bridge! On both sides of the bridge, there are cycle paths/walking paths along the Linth Canal, up to Ziegelbrücke or to the mouth of the Obersee, all perfectly flat.

View of Lake Zurich and Lachen from Buchberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

After Buchberg is the well-deserved departure. The road is only lightly traveled. Great view on the sunny side of the Buchberg.
