Töss Valley Loop Trail

Highlight • Trail

The paths are in very good condition, there are cozy rest areas and fireplaces, and there is always a bench in a beautiful spot. If you have time, go during the week.

The Kyburg Bridge or Linsental Bridge was built in 1845/46 and reinforced in 1941.
It is the oldest wooden bridge in the city that still stands in its original location.
As the only wooden bridge on the Töss, the suspension bridge still serves road traffic at its original location today.
The building is listed.

Long and steep stairs that are located between the entrance of Kyburg Castle and the wooden bridge over the Töss.

Kyburg Castle

Highlight • Castle

After the easy ride along the Töss, the climb to Kyburg begins. A steep 160 meters in altitude! But the effort is definitely worth it, because the castle of the same name, which was first mentioned in 1027, sits at the top of the rocky spur. If you don't feel like taking a history lesson, you can take a break in one of the restaurants or look forward to the upcoming, rapid descent.

The mighty waterfall can be viewed from above, according to the scaffolding, a small viewing platform will also be built later. The descent is not possible without further aids!
