What is it?
Only open for the summer, Zurich’s place to be seen is the Flussbad Oberer letten Badi. Essentially, this is where Zurich locals hang out when the summer is out, jumping into the River Limmat to cool off from the heat and working on their tans in a historical bathing house.
Is it worth it?
If lazing around with a drink in hand in one of the most beautiful spots in Zurich and floating down the river Limmat is your thing, then absolutely.
Oh, but if not? There’s also two beach volleyball courts and a 400-metre swimming pool, plus Panama, a very lovely bar and restaurant, close by.
How much are tickets?
You’re in luck – tickets are free completely free. But it is only open seasonally, and tends to close in winter (your best bet is visiting between May and early September).
Where’s good to eat nearby?
You don’t have to swim nude, but you can eat at Nude Cafe and Bar (get it?). If you want something more fancy, check out Elmira, which has a green sustainable Michelin star.
