About us
The 'Hash House' Harriers are a social running group (although with many walkers) without formal rules or organization. It is international, with thousands of groups in most major cities, the world's largest social running fraternity.
There is a focus on the social element and not taking things too seriously. The group means different things to different people – from getting in a decent (and interesting) run, to walking a dog, or simply getting outside and having a drink (or two). Everyone is welcome.
We meet every Thursday and on the first Saturday of the month. Each week, someone different hosts (so it's always a little different in venue, route, theme and start point). Anybody can join by showing up at the designated meeting point.
We urge you to join. If you have questions, turn up and ask them.
We aim to bring together people who want to socialise, enjoy nonsense and have a bit of exercise at the same time. It's a great forum to meet new people (and have the option to run away from anyone boring!). There are all shapes & sizes, races, ages, intelligence and fitness levels.
We cater to young and old, fast or slow, fit or 'not-so-fit'! The main prerequisites are a sense of humour, open-mindedness and a general sense of fun. We are mainly English-speaking but most of us can speak (some) German.
There is always alcohol (which is part of the 'hash' tradition) and snacks at the end of our poor excuses for runs (covered by 5CHF), along with non-alcoholic alternatives for the real athletes and those who just prefer not to.
Plenty more information can be found on www.zh3.ch and on the Meetup information page or each event (which usually has a loose theme, but are all pretty similar, involving following/finding trail (the route) using markings on the ground).
If we do not accept your Meetup request immediately, give us some time, we will be on-on it shortly. Don't be afraid to just turn up and complain in person if this happens to you. You will be more than welcome.
Any questions? (how would you like my finger in your ear?). If that amuses you even slightly, you will fit in perfectly!

ZH3 Hash # 1758: And I would lay 100 more
Minervastrasse 65, Minervastrasse 65, 8032 Zürich, Switzerland, Zürich, ZH, CHMany moons ago, a young Digit got his feet wet laying his first trail. Armed with the wisdom of 98 further lays (and apparently undeterred by any of them) he believes he’s finally cracked the formula.
The Zurich Hash House Harriers are invited to put that bold claim to the test on the 100th trail, hared by Slippery Digit! Expect every single lesson learned to flow into this magnum opus, guiding you expertly through the streets of Zurich while highlighting every possible way a trail can and WILL go wrong.
After all, a hundred lays should teach a hare something. Whether that something is useful remains a matter for the pack to decide.
Seasoned hashers, come witness the culmination of years of questionable decisions. Newcomers, come discover why we keep following them. No previous experience of being led astray required.Meet at the Mobility of Church St. Anton for bag drops and pre trail prayers. At this milestone, divine intervention seems a perfectly reasonable precaution.
Expect a mid-length chill sunday trail with an on-after at Nooba, or whoever will have us :)
One hundred trails. One Slippery Digit. What could possibly go right?
Meet at 1:45pm to start at 2:00pm. There will be a charge of CHF5.00 for participating.
Here's what you need to know about the Hash:
• The aim of the hash is to find the beer stop at the end and have fun.
• "True" trail is typically 6-7km.
• The pace within the group varies from dead-slow movers (we call them DFLs) to over-achieving fast runners (we call them FRBs)
• The "hare" cleverly lays the trail so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• If you are a slow runner, you will clock around 7kms.
• If you are a quick runner you will clock around 10kms.
• If you are a walker you will be dedicated to the cause, ignore trail and take the shortest route possible to get to the beer.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and often a place to change.
• There is a charge of CHF5 for participating (and includes beer and snacks).
• If you like fun, drinking and doing something a bit different you will probably enjoy hashing. Humourless people need not apply.
