I go offen to the swimming pool (2 - 3 times a week)…read more As I live in the city (almost in the city :) ) The Hallenbad City is very convenient. The lanes are 50 meter long ( what I prefer instead of 25 m). It is very well renovated. But a bit disappointed that it is overwhelming WOOOWW-architecture. And it took very long to renovate it... Appart from that I only gave 3 stars because it has limited lanes and it is always crowded. I tried 9:00, 10:00, 12:00, 14:00. I don't even dare to go in the evening after work ;) As all swimmingpools in Switzerland it is 1 big fitting room. So don't be to ashamed! Worth a visit, but don't forget 5 sfr for the lockers (they can not give you a coin). PS: Not really made for kids.

Finally the city pool is open! Dont go during the week at 18 o' clock, really full!…read more Better durig lunch, like from 12 to 13. Still a lot of people, but you can swim at least!

My favorite place for swimming in Zurich!…read more This place is really amazing. I've been here a dozen times and enjoy it every time. Up top, there's a great kiddie splash pool with a big mushroom fountain in the middle and a frog slide on the side. Kids have a blast in it. There's also a full size swimming pool for those who like to swim in water that's more than knee deep. The river bath below is cool and jammed packed on sunny hot summer days with divers, swimmers, floaters, and sun-bathers alike. The cafe serves up delicious fresh food/salads and drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). The small playground next to the cafe definitely come in handy for those with kids who want to enjoy a bite in peace at the picnic tables. Plus the whole place is fully enclosed so you don't have to worry about your toddler breaking out. The fact that this awesome place in Zurich actually has FREE entrance really makes it as good as it gets! :)

Ok, I came for my first lunch swim today, and NOW I know what all the hype is about. The left side…read moreis only for women, and the right side is co-ed. CHF 7 lets you in... but we got discount tickets at CHF 3 from my company. :) The bar sells food and drinks, or you can bring your own picnic. A free pitcher of water with plastic cups was laid out on a small table. There is a changing room to hang your clothes, and we laid out our towels in the last bit of shade. No one except little fish actually swim in the little square of water in the middle of the platform. We went out into the lake and swam to one of the floating platforms. The water was a bit chilly at first, but it was a nice contrast to the hot sun. Afterwards, we rinsed off at the outdoor shower and then laid out in the sun to dry before heading back to the office. What a fabulous way to spend lunch! :)

Very good. The days are still cool enough to enjoy them fully, but good for these times.read more

Floating downstream, walking back up, floating downstream, walking back up, floating downstream…read more.. and going for a Cervelat and and Apfelwein. Pretty awesome way to spend a summer afternoon, if you ask me. The swimming stretch is quick-flowing, often lifeguarded, and has several ladders; during nice days, expect to deal with people hanging out on the ladders, trying to decide if they want a dip or not. It's totally fair game to bypass them and jump in. (And if that's your style, there's a rope swing on the opposite shore). The playground has both water and dry sections for the 2-to-8 crowd; the climbing structures are all pretty small, so more adventurous kids may be happier swimming. The buildings in the center of the island have an outdoor restaurant, plus bathrooms and warm showers. In the middle of the island, there's a run-of-the-river hydro plant --- good if you like crashing water. More impressive falls are on the south-east corner. One thing to know ahead of time: The western third of the island is a de facto nude area, predominantly male and frequently gay. Everyone's pretty mellow, but it does make for a marked transition just past the powerplant.

The lanes are only 25 m (pity because I prefer 50 m :) ) You can lie outside when the sun is there. During the weekend the swimming pool can be crowded !! During the week it gets a bit crowded after work. But during the day it is perfectly fine. Not too much people. A downside for me, it is a bit far from where a live. But you can go with tram 2 to it. Biking from the city takes approx. 15 min. Tip: Locker 2 Sfr

I am a big fan of Oberer Letten. You can find me almost daily here when the sun is shinning…read more Oberer Letten as 2 sides where you can hang out. The right side (with your back towards the city) is the most hip place. Here you have a nice bar with sometimes night events. You find a more young audience. You can play Volleyball and here are a lot of kids also skating. The food is good. You have to try for sure the burgers. The left side of the river you also have a bar. and a private section only for women to bath. at this side you also have the life guards, dressing rooms and showers. There are small lockers and bigger ones. The bar lost a bit of his charms after the renovation last year. They are slow to prepare the food (last time I had to wait 20 minutes for french fries - it was a weekday, so not too much people around). Lets hope that this year they improved there services :) If you have something to inflate, there is a pump close to the lockers. It is very useful if you have a boat to inflate :) This is for me a very nice place in Kreis 5 - it is very local, you don't have the tourists from the lake and you can swim, drink and eat !

I'm a big fan of Oberer Letten because it's in a great location and there's a lot of stuff…read more They have volleyball court, a skate court, a nice bar/restaurant area, and a big walkway that leads further west. I've only been on the one side (the right side, with your back towards the city, thanks Sebastien). I loved the little restaurant because it has a nice shaded patio and across the walkway you can sit closer to the water and they provide quite a bit of seating. The place has a pretty hip and alternative feel, and I always dig that because it reminds me of Austin! The graffiti is even pretty. The beer prices were good, and the focaccia bread was delicious and pretty big. Personally, I'm not a big fan of sunbathing here. It's so packed and there isn't any grass! For me, it's not so relaxing, but I'd come with friends for having some fun. Otherwise, I prefer Rentenwiese, less people, quite, and relaxing.

They have grill stations to use for free with desks to sit, two table tennis stations and a volleyball field at the other side of the lido. There is place to find shadow and they serve menus in the restaurant and they have a Kiosk too. The facility is in good shape. I like this place and the food is good. If you do not have big appetite, you can buy a 1/2 menu. It was big enough for me. Place to park your car could be a little bit difficult.
