See all- Afternoon Hike via Lägern to Baden, from Dielsdorf / RegensbergZurich HB - Under the Blue Angel, Zürich
Hike Description
We explore the easternmost part of the Jura mountains, right next to Baden. This hike features a small elevation (less than 500 meters), and we will walk about 12 km of distance, starting next to beautiful castle Regensberg with its vineyards. But please don't underestimate Lägern! We will start out on vineyard roads and end up on the exposed ridge visible in the title photo. There is an easier alternate path to Baden in case you discover on the way that you don't like the main ridge. However you will have to navigate that route yourself.
RouteTake some snacks and we will take a break on Lägern Hochwacht view point, with views over the whole Zurich area. Lägern Hochwacht is about ⅓ of the way to Baden by distance.
Getting there and back
I will take the S15 at 12:52 from Zurich HB and arrive in Dielsdorf at 13:15, where we start our hike. The end location is Baden, where we can go to a pub for drinks and dinner or just return home by train.Dedicated WhatsApp group

Hike description:
Because the train journey will take longer than usual (due to maintenance work on the line) and we need to be in Schüpfheim between 11:00 and 13:00 if we want to catch at least part of the Alpabzug, the hike has been shorten.
But it is still possible to join me for the long version, if you get up earlier, are FAST enough to meet the main group on time. If you are interested, let me know in the dedicated WhatsApp group, I will forward you more details.
The (shorten version of the) hike starts at 9:10 in Hasle LU, Heiligkreuz Kirche. We do a 10 km hike until the road the cows will take and then will follow them until Schlüpheim.
the starting point is the point 3 on komoot (unless you want the long version)
