Even if it is included in cycling routes, this path is NOT for cycling! I ended up there with my touring bike and I had a lot of trouble clearing it. I also had to push, or even carry, the bike in some parts. This could be maybe done on a MTB, but I anyhow believe it is not permitted to go there by bike. A part from this, this path is beautiful, but make sure to just walk there.

A magnificent viewpoint on the Sännenberg with a wide view down into the Limmattal. From up here, the varied landscape with its villages, fields, forests, and the surrounding mountain ranges can be wonderfully overlooked. Especially in the early morning, when the valley slowly awakens and the light increasingly reveals the landscape, a very special atmosphere unfolds here.

A beautifully situated picnic spot with a magnificent view down into the Limmattal. The quiet location and the wide view make this place a perfect spot for a short rest. Especially in the early morning, when the landscape slowly awakens and a pleasant tranquility still lies over the valley, it is a wonderful place to pause and enjoy the view.

Suitable for a smaller group, right next to the forest path, a picnic spot that is very popular. Not only do you have everything you need for a picnic in the woods, but this dreamlike view of the Limmattahl is the crowning glory. Simply beautiful, even if only for a short break.

Being up here, leaving the hectic everyday life behind, observing everything so small from above, being free here, a wonderful far-reaching view - especially in good weather conditions - is wonderful!
