Island Hopping, Burgers, and Live Music
Island Hopping, Burgers, and Live Music
(bad weather fallback date: 2 July) Dear ZOWSPers Every summer, ZOWSP goes island hopping. There are two islands at the end of Lake Zurich: Ufnau & Lützelau Every Thursday evening on Lützelau, there is free live music at the restaurant (more info: [https://insel-luetzelau.ch/restaurant/](https://insel-luetzelau.ch/restaurant/)) We will: - leave Zurich by train (S8) at 16:07 to Freienbach - start swimming from Spielplatz Seeanlage Freienbach to Ufnau at 5pm sharp - walk across Ufnau - swim to Lützelau - order food, drinks, and enjoy live music on Lützelau - catch a boat to Rapperswil Please note: - Signup on this meetup event is mandatory by Monday (3 days before we go), as we need to book boats to get back to Rapperswil. - Two swim groups: slower (\~3:00/100m) & faster (\~2:00/100m) - Total Swim distance: 2.5km, split into 2 parts: before & after walking across Ufnau - Bring a dry-bag to pack your phones, flip flops, clothes. - I suspect wetsuits will not be required given how quickly the lake temperature is rising. In order to participate in this event, you need to leave work early. Here are some excuses you can use: - I have a dentist appointment (overused & boring, but always works) - my cat is sick - it's my {important relative}'s {high-number rounded to the nearest 10}th birthday dinner in Lausanne - My neighbor just texted me because my dog won't stop barking, and they think a pipe might have burst in the building's hallway. I need to go check on things (the best excuse in this list, because it is too specific to be considered suspicious) Best, ZOWSP organising committee

ZH3 Hash # 1735: The I Want to Sweat Free Freddie Mercury Experience Hash
It’s gonna be Hot!! Hotter than a Rockstar on Wembley stage at a Live Aid Concert. Too hot to wear clothes when Under Pressure. But that’s a special Kind of Magic reserved for midnight Hashes and The Show Must Go On so come dressed like a Queen or a Rockstar Queen and set your armpits free on trail. Iron that vest, polish those teeth and grow that sexy moustache as We Will Rock You around Zürich and hopefully find the Beer before Another One Bites The Dust under the scorching sun. Hare is Just Beggin’ For It **Where**: See location. Typically within Zurich Zone 10. Look for English speakers wearing running gear. **When:** We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm. There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards. **All Welcome:** If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know: • We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful. • The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun. • 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further. • The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time. • There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change. • **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards. **Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?** If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it. 'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.* We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

Thursday Evening - Aerial in Low Silk with Simona
Thursday Evening - Aerial in Low Silk with Simona
In this gentle aerial yoga class, we use a soft fabric hammock suspended just 10 cm above the floor. The hammock supports your body as you move, helping you stretch more deeply, improve flexibility, and build strength in a new way. With the fabric holding part of your weight, you can explore each pose with more ease, sometimes with a soft sway, sometimes with a bit of challenge. We combine mobility, strength, and relaxation, and finish with a peaceful Savasana in the hammock. The class is in English and open to all levels. * Props provided or bring your own * Drop-in rate CHF 35.-, abos and packages available on studio website and Eversports * Please register and purchase a pass via [Yoga Nest Eversports](https://www.eversports.ch/org/widget/6bb2f0f6-b0ff-4d15-84be-5f9229b128f2?venueId=b336fe38-08c9-45ab-a1d8-3255d21ed886)
District Runners Community Run
District Runners Community Run
Do you want to run regularly? Together in a group? Then run with us! #### **Every Thursday, 7pm at Lochergut, Zurich** We run about 7km and adjust the speed depending on the runners who join us. For us, running isn’t just about fitness and competition, it’s about community and connection. We believe that nobody should have to run alone, and that by running together, we can push each other to be stronger and more resilient. We look forward to welcoming you to the next run 🙌

Diavolo Ferrata Together
Diavolo Ferrata Together
A truly spectacular route in the granite rocks of the Schöllenen gorge, albeit with plenty of grass in between. There are fascinating views down into the wild gorge and its roads. **Difficulty** K2-3. Moderately difficult via ferrata, **ideal for beginners**. With 700 metres of wire rope, 265 iron pins and pitons, artificial footholds and two attached ladders. Not advisable when wet (grass). **You MUST sign the waiver form, it contains detailed information about the difficulty and more** -> https://forms.gle/KUpZWbu1Bep8QnhA7 There is no transport organised, no Bus. You can use your car or travel with the organiser Cédric Walter from Zürich HB, meeting up below the Blue Engel at 6:15 sharp The recommended SBB train is the **To Be Announced** **Costs:** You'll have to pay for: * Transport by train to Andermatt or you organise your own transportation. * Renting the Via Ferrata set equipment or bringing your own set. Via prior reservation, via ferrata equipment can be rented at **To Be Announced** **Starting-point** Andermatt (1436 m), station for the Furka-Oberalp-Bahn railway and terminus for the funicular coming up from Göschenen. Parking at the station. **Walk-in** From the station at Andermatt, follow the route alongside and on the main road (route signed) through the Urner Loch into the Schöllenen gorge, turning right before you reach the Teufelsbrücke Bridge and making for the Suvorov Memorial (1,405 m). **Diavolo via ferrata** Go across the low wall and on the wire rope to the actual start. The route rises steeply and airily over a striking rib and into stepped terrain, before moving over alternating flat rocks and grassy ledges towards the mountain. There are gripping views down into the Schöllenen gorge with the old Teufelsbrücke and its modern transport routes, which gradually shrink to toy size. There is an extended and unsecured left traverse (refer to the book of routes) taking you over to the route's grande finale: a channel, an exposed corner of rock and finally a vertical ladder, before you are standing on the edge of the Tüfelstalboden (approx. 1,860 m). Only slightly higher, there is a delightful stopping-point below the Uri flag, with a view of the jagged granite of Salbitschijen. **Descent** On a well-signed path, first taking in a slight climb over the Tüfelstalboden, and then gently downhill to the avalanche obstructions, before zig-zagging down to the barracks area at Andermatt. Region: Gotthard region Peak/Highest point: Tüfelstalboden (approx. 1,900 m) Time required: climb 2 hours (via ferrata 1 hour), descent 1 hour; total 3 hours. Variation in height: 500 m (via ferrata 450 m) [https://www.sac-cas.ch/de/huetten-und-touren/sac-tourenportal/tuefelstalboden-7805/klettersteig/via-ferrata-del-diavolo-743/](https://www.sac-cas.ch/de/huetten-und-touren/sac-tourenportal/tuefelstalboden-7805/klettersteig/via-ferrata-del-diavolo-743/) [https://www.bergsteigen.com/touren/klettersteig/la-farina-del-diavolo-ferrata/](https://www.bergsteigen.com/touren/klettersteig/la-farina-del-diavolo-ferrata/) [https://www.mountainreporters.com/gebieden/midden-europa/zwitserland/adrenaline-voor-beginners-klettersteig-diavolo-in-andermatt/](https://www.mountainreporters.com/gebieden/midden-europa/zwitserland/adrenaline-voor-beginners-klettersteig-diavolo-in-andermatt/)

Hiking weekend in Wallis (2 nights in a hut))
Hiking weekend in Wallis (2 nights in a hut))
Enjoy a spring hiking weekend in the Wallis, in a simple but cosy hut on 2000m above the sea, not far from Brig. We hike, cook, have fun and do all works together, and most important: Enjoy the mountain views. We start Friday morning from home, meet on the train and still must hike up 500m carrying our food for the weekend. On Saturday we start for a day-hike around the hut. On Sunday we first have breakfast together, clean the hut, walk down probably to another location than the one where we started and finish the weekend with a nice drink or some food, before we take the train home. The detailed plan will depend on the weather. All hikes are T1/T2 and may be 4 to 6 hours, and up to 1000m up/down. The price for 2 nights is 70.- CHF incl. some basics. The cost for the food we will share later. The group is almost complete already, but a few slots are still open to the planned group size of 10 to 12 persons. The Meetup waiting list does not have any meaning. If you want to join, please send me a private message with your contact data and I will respond sending you my bank account and phone number. Once I noticed your payment, I will move you in as participant. Please do your payment not later than 19.6.2026 ! If you want to cancel the trip later than one week before I cannot refund the payment, but of course you can find an alternative person to take over your spot. What you have to bring: · Good shoes · A thin sleeping bag is mandatory (liner only, blankets are available) · A towel and your personal needs, like ear plugs for those being sensitive to snoring, etc. · Sun protection, · Rain protection, · Poles, if you have · Enough to drink and some snacks for the lunch breaks Disclaimer: The organiser is not responsible in any way for anything that can happen during the hike. Outdoor activities involve risks. Everyone joins on their own judgement and responsibility. THIS IS NOT A GUIDED TOUR!
