Pfannenstiel is the name of the hill range on the north-eastern shore of Lake Zurich. It’s a nice recreation area for walks and offers views over Lake Zurich and towards the Alps. On the Hochwacht there is a wooden lookout tower you can climb up for even better views. There are many marked paths and possibilities for long and short hikes. As it only takes 30 minutes to get there, it’s perfect for a couple of hours in the outdoors. There are also two restaurants if hunger should happen to strike.
