A have had the honour of visiting friends who live close to Zurich, although in 5 or so visits here we have rarely been in the city ityself., That is because our visits have had a family feel and we have been out and about in the local countryside to check out the great views and brilliant array of outdoor activities in this part of Switzerland.
We usually use public transport from our base, 10 miles from Zurich and it is excellent, better organised than anywhere I have been and incredibly efficient.

We enjoyed the zoo and the towns around the Lake itself gave ample opportunity for cafe stops. There are a lot of parks/playgrounds around which the children will love and these are real playgrounds. The ones where when you fall off because you are daft, it will hurt and you can be over 4 years of age to join in the fun. There also appears to be plenty of swim opportunities in the summer around the lake with water slides that we saw moth balled for the winter.

Bon anniversaire David! Pilatus is definitively a must. Greetings from the Swiss Alps! Patrick
I was in Zurich for a day only many years ago catching a train to Nice,good tips pal
Funny to read your tips - daytrips from Zurich! I've once been to this pumpkin place too - very famous. And you walked from Uetliberg to Felsenegg, haha! I wonder where the heck you started that it took you 1,5 hrs to Rhinefall ;)
David, for me it looks like you did quite a lot of day trips from Zurich. There are more tips about other towns here than on Zurich itself. Fabulous page, anyway. :-)
Embarrassing? Nooooo. I picked that one specially. I love to see men & women dance together - we definitely don't see enough of it here!
