A surprisingly quiet running route around Zürich Airport, starting from the Hilton Hotel.The first half of the route follows the small Glatt River, taking you all the way to the threshold of Runway 14.
Here, you’ll find a small café and toilets whereyou can refill your water bottles or grab a snack along the way.The second part follows the eastern side of the airport, running alongside Runway 14. You’ll pass GA North, before the final 2 km take you back along the busy road around the airport.
About 80% of the route is on gravel, with roughly 50% shaded by trees, making it a pleasant option even on warmer days.
A really nice long run to clear your head after a busy day of flying—with a surprisinglypeaceful atmosphere despite being right next to one of Switzerland’s busiest airports.
