A gentle paved walk by the river with plenty of benches and cafés nearby for a calm pause before evening plans.

Gentle stroll along Bahnhofstrasse (flat, lots of seats nearby)

A relaxed walk along Bahnhofstrasse to enjoy window displays and bench stops — take it slowly and use tram for longer segments.

Lunch at Kunsthaus café (easy access and calm seating)

A light, accessible lunch in the museum café before the main art visit.

Local Tips from the travel experts

Handpicked tips from top-rated activities in Zürich to help you make the most of your visit.

"Enter through the main entrance which is step-free; seating is available inside to rest while admiring the windows.Visit earlier in the day to avoid crowds and to enjoy a quieter atmosphere for reflection.There are public toilets nearby on the riverside (ask staff or the church office for the nearest accessible facilities)."

Visit Fraumünster Church to view the Chagall windows

"Request a corner table or booth for more privacy and a cozy lunchtime atmosphere.The Schiffbau terrace is lovely in summer; if you prefer outdoors, ask for a riverside table at booking.Short walkable distance from the old town — combine with a slow stroll back toward Bürkliplatz after dessert."

Leisurely lunch at LaSalle (Schiffbau)

"Ask for a ground-floor table away from the main entrance to avoid drafts and bustling traffic.Portions are generous; consider sharing or asking for smaller portions if you prefer lighter meals.Confirm accessibility when booking—staff can reserve seating that minimises walking from the entrance."

Lunch at Restaurant Zeughauskeller — traditional Swiss dishes with accessible seating

"Reserve a table near the windows for uninterrupted skyline views—golden hour here is magical.Try a locally inspired cocktail and share a small plate so you stay light before dinner.If you prefer quieter spots, ask for a table at the far end of the bar terrace away from the DJ area."

Rooftop cocktails at Clouds (Prime Tower) — skyline romance

"Lindenhof is compact and step‑free for the main viewpoint; bring a sweater for September breezes.Seats and shaded areas are plentiful — plan a 20–30 minute rest and enjoy slower pacing with companions.Avoid narrow side alleys in the Old Town if uneven cobbles are an issue; stick to the Lindenhof plaza and adjacent paved streets."

Lindenhof viewpoint (short, level visit with benches)

"Paths are mostly level and well maintained, with many benches—rest frequently and enjoy the spring blooms at a gentle pace.Greenhouses offer sheltered seating if the spring weather is cool or breezy; accessible routes lead between the main displays.Bring a light layer; shade and cool greenhouses can feel cooler than the city in May."

Botanical Garden (University of Zurich) — peaceful spring blooms and shaded paths

"Accessibility: Brasserie Lipp offers step-free access and spacious seating; reserve a table in advance and ask for a quiet corner.Menu: Choose a lighter main, and enjoy warm wines/teas — staff are patient with dietary requests and slower dining pace.Pacing: Dinner is set early (recommended 18:15–19:45) to avoid late-night travel; taxis are readily available outside if you prefer not to walk to your final stop."

Cozy dinner at Brasserie Lipp (Paradeplatz area) — calm evening meal

"Reserve 4–6 e‑bikes in advance and ask for a single rental invoice to split the bill easily among friends.Bring a light backpack — there are a couple of short, cobbled uphill stretches where the e‑assist helps a lot.Plan a photo stop at Bellevue/Bürkliplatz (flat with great skyline views) and lock bikes together while you shoot."

E‑bike rental & quick self-guided loop

"Sunset timing: in December plan for sunset around 16:30–17:00; arrive 20–30 minutes early for the best light and to settle kids.Accessibility: the immediate viewpoint area by the Uetliberg station and hotel is flat and stroller-friendly — avoid the steep hiking trail with small children.Kid comfort: bring a thermos with warm drink and small snacks; there's room for toddlers (ages 1–8) to stretch safely on the grassy areas near the lookout."
