Arboretum Zürich

Amazing place for jumping in the water next to the boat and grill or stay with friends! Going after a nice workout and than see all that people that are relaxing. and the grass than is so green and well maintained! I would like to spend more time! The pictures are self explanatory! 😍 it is a great place

The marina bay nearby is great! Beautiful on summer Good for picnic to bring family, friends and dogs if you have one hahahahahha Few Restaurants and food stalls are around for drinks and food or a great wine or beer Recommended for visit when in Zurich

Lohe this place in mid old town Zurich. It's near the lake and the view is stunning. I love to walk around in every time of the year, it's quiet gorgeous weather it's sunny or snowy. In this time of the year there's a lot of festivals and so going on so there's always something to see. The ambience is very nice and if you want you can take the round tour with ship on the lake and enjoy a cup of hot swiss chocolate

Zurich lake and park. Great place to have a picnic for a family or a romantic date. Can get in the lake and swim, get a suntan...the park is big and with a lot of trees (shade). Free WC. Can see birds and swans on the lake + some signs give information about them. A ferryboat on the lake is a must!

Beautiful spot for hanging out, sunbathing or even swimming. The park and surrounding path is absolutely amazing. There are some great views of the Zürichsee.

Love place to walk along the Zürich Lake. Highly recommend.

Lovely lovely park. Beautiful view, very relaxing. Good for families, picnic, bbq and more. There are some restaurants nearby as well. Good for swimming too.

I love going there to chill over the week-end or for after work :) there is a lot of space and the mood there is always friendly, and let me feel I am on vacation :) The water of the lake is clean (but this, it’s Zürich) and amazing view 🤩 I am going there during all summer for chilling, reading, bbq, paddle… would be nice to have more food trucks there, but I still give it a 5/5 !

Nice park with beautiful trees and green space along the lake. Toilets and benches available, with various winding paths both paved and gravel. Nice to check out while passing through.

This park is a nice patch of grass at Enge on the edge of Lake Zurich. In the summer months, there are tons of people laid out on the grass sunbathing, having picnics, throwing Frisbees around, or just chilling with their dogs. You can also wade into the lake for a swim, although it's not so convenient to go in from all the large rocks because it's not a proper swimming area. But it's free to enter from here, so lots of people go for a dip. In the cooler months, it's still nice for a stroll to watch the birds swimming in the lake. There are various ducks and swans swimming about and the occasional fisherman, although I've never seen anyone catch anything here.

There are two places near Burkliplatz that one can have a nice BBQ/picnic on a warm day: (1) Arborteum near Enge, or at (2) China Wiese [in front of the Chinagarten] near Bellevue. The arboretum is the right place for those who want to show off their booty and immerse in a "fun to be young" bikini frisbee/volleyball/football crowd. It is a place to see, and to be seen. You can also BBQ/picnic there, but the land area is smaller, and is shadier/cooler. If you are looking for a much bigger stretch of land with more sunshine then you should head to China Wiese. China Wiese is also more geared to a mixed crowd, from families, couples, friends, groups, etc. On the weekends you can also catch the excitement of watching tight rope walkers practice their gig, which is missing from the Arboteum since there are less trees.
