Türlersee Circular Trail
The popular circular trail around Türlersee starts at the Restaurant Camping Türlersee. This beautiful hike takes you completely around the idyllic lake. Depending on your pace, you'll need approximately one hour for the entire route. After the hike, you can stop at Restaurant Camping Türlersee (phone 044 764 00 03) and treat yourself to culinary delights. For longer hikes, the circular trail can be excellently combined with the Ämtlerwäg. This route, known as the Knonauramt Trail, leads from Hausen am Albis via Lake Türlersee to Mettmenstetten and back again to Hausen am Albis. This extended route takes around 3.5 hours and can be combined with a visit to the the well-known Restaurant Löwen in Hausen am Albis.
Walking Around Türlersee
Türlersee offers diverse recreational opportunities. Located directly at the lake are a well-equipped campsite and an inviting lido. In summer, you can enjoy swimming and relaxing here. Even in the cooler seasons, the path around the lake is a real experience. We recommend not walking the circular trail directly after heavy rain, as puddles can form on the path. With 4.3 kilometers, the route is very suitable for occasional hikers and offers a pleasant hiking experience.
Along the route, you'll find several well-maintained barbecue areas, both at the forest edge and directly at the lakeshore. A special highlight are the comfortable wooden loungers at the lido, inviting you to relax and sunbathe. Here you can take a well-deserved break and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere by the lake.
