Hello there,

I'm new to Zürich and looking for some fun/easygoing weekend rides (or some trail running / hiking) as a way to try and improve my cardio fitness and just get out and see some of the area. I am open to a bit of socializing too (bike ride + a "recovery beer" at the end is the perfect combination).

If anyone wants to meet up for a weekend ride, or some hiking that's accessible from in town, get in touch!

What level of fitness are you at? And where in Zurich are you based?

Good locations to run in and around Zurich are Uetliberg - from Albisrieden and Triemli - to Adliswil.

Zuriberg from the Zoo to Witikon - up to the top of Dolder - with a plethora of paths.

A little further out you have the woods from Zollikon to Kusnacht to Zollikerberg. And the Kusnacht Tobel (valley) is also a great run.

I also run in Amden - which is an hour down the lake - and has more aggressive hills!
