General information

Meeting point: https://maps.app.goo.gl/H3gcA5fxGHfBEjnu6

Meeting time: 18h00

Weather: Night, a bit cloudy, 0°, icy & snowy trails, spikes recommended but not mandatory.

Route: For the way up, we'll take trails in the woods as often as possible instead of sticking to the main path. The way down will be on the main road.

Pace / fitness level: Chill, open to everyone, but the route can be pretty steep.

Transportation: Everyone goes to the meeting point on their own. If you come by car, it's pretty easy to park there.

Note: On your profile, ideally add a picture of you and select the country you're from (not the one you're living in), to show how international the group is. :)

Important rules about Hiking Buddies

  • You have until 12 hours before the start of the event to drop out from the hike.
  • Participants not showing up will get a "NO-SHOW" flag on their profile, which decreases significantly your chances to be accepted on future hikes.
  • The organizer is no professional guide, participants must be responsible for themselves (and that means to do some research about the routes and its potential dangers / tricky sections to know if you have the experience for it).

ARC'TERYX TEST GEAR

From 1st January 2022, Hiking Buddies in Zürich having participated to at least two hikes are entitled to borrow for a month Arc'Teryx outdoor gear (see Facebook post).
