Thurauen Nature Center

Highlight • Rest Area

The Thurauen Nature Center is a program of the PanEco Foundation on behalf of the Canton of Zurich. For over 10 years, the nature center has been the gateway to the largest floodplain protection area in the Swiss Plateau - and thus the contact point for all information about the Thurauen, the revitalization and the protected area.

Thurauen Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

A much taller and more spectacular wooden tower has stood here since April 2025. The tower itself is worth a hike, as it is very beautiful and blends perfectly into the landscape. From the platforms, you can perfectly observe the animals in the Thurauen meadows.
