Rapperswil in 4 days

If you only have 4 days to spend in Rapperswil, we’ve narrowed down the top places you should check out to get the best experience of your time here.
Rapperswil, often called the “town of roses,” sits on the upper end of Lake Zurich with a well-preserved medieval old town and a hilltop castle overlooking the water. Its lakeside promenade, wooden footbridge across the lake, and nearby vineyards make it a popular spot for relaxed walks and scenic views. Families are drawn to attractions like the long-established Knie’s Children’s Zoo, while frequent trains and boats connect Rapperswil easily with Zurich and other Swiss destinations.
With favorites like Holzbrücke Rapperswil-Hurden, blues'n'jazz rapperswil-jona, and Wurmsbach Abbey, we’ll make sure you don’t miss out on all the must sees. We even included some of our favorite food spots around the area, like Subway and Zeughaus-Grill so you can get the best taste of Rapperswil while you’re here. To see our full list of food recommendations, check out our best restaurants post. If you're traveling on a budget, you can check out our cheap eats post.

Zoo
Outdoor Activities
Knie's Kinderzoo is a family-friendly destination offering up-close encounters with a variety of animals, making it an ideal spot for quality time with loved ones. The zoo features monkeys, ungulates, camels, and more. It is conveniently located near the train station and offers activities like camel and elephant rides, as well as a sea lion show. Children can interact with animals by riding horses and feeding goats.
Amazing little Zoo, close to the lake. I was amazed at how smooth things went. After getting the ticket, within 1 minute of walking we already saw amazing animals: elephants, giraffes and zebras. I think it's great for kids to have a zoo where it's not so exhausting to walk from one animal to the other. Although we went there on a Saturday, there was no queue, it was great!
Adrian T — Google review
Knie’s Kinderzoo is an absolute delight for families! Friendly, knowledgeable staff guide you through well-kept enclosures where children can pet goats, watch playful otters, and feed colorful parrots. Clean facilities, engaging educational displays, and fun playgrounds make every visit memorable. Highly recommend for a day of animal magic!

Lived our experience! It’s the best for little kids. You see the animals form up close. I recommend all the families with little kids to visit this zoo instead of Zürich zoo. It’s mostly for adults and you have to walk a lot. This one is perfect, you can ride the animals which the kids love.
Kiran K — Google review
The kids love it but we went on hot day so when too sunny to explore whole place. It’s a 5-6 min walk from station or you can take a bus 991. The place is not huge can finish in 2 hour depend how long you spend. The pony ride was cute but my kids notice the pony was looking very sad I think is abit cruel to sit on them too. We didn’t do the elephant and camel ride. The most fav is the patting the goat surprisingly they were very calm and friendly.

We visited after 5 p.m. and got the discounted price, which was a nice bonus and a perfect amount of time to see everything for our toddler! It was pretty busy at that time, but still really enjoyable. There were lots of animals to see and interact with and great play areas for kids. A fun and well-kept zoo that’s perfect for families!

Cristian O — Google review
A good place to visit for kids as well as adults. Re are a lot of animals that you could see. There is an option to pet the goats. You could also take a horse carriage ride through the zoo. You have an option to ride the double jumped camel as well as elephant. There are few options for kids to play around. A nice place to visit. Would definitely recommend it for kids.

(Translated by Google) The ice quality in the hall is subpar if you can play as a fun team in the evening after the juniors. The giant furrows are not repaired and are only difficult and dangerous.

Museum
Nestled in the heart of Switzerland, the Kunst(Zeug)Haus is a captivating fusion of art and architecture that beautifully bridges history with modernity. Once an armoury, this dynamic space hosts rotating exhibitions featuring contemporary Swiss artists throughout the year, making it a must-visit for art enthusiasts. Additionally, it serves as a nurturing platform for emerging artists under 30 years old.
Great variation and quality of exhibitions for such a small but definitely remarkable foundation. It has a guest friendly and nicely integrated "Café" to sit directly in the hip square surrounded by ancient facilities.

Sandwich shop
Subway is a laid-back fast food franchise that offers customizable salads and sandwiches, catering to individuals seeking healthier choices. During a recent visit to Switzerland, one customer enjoyed a remarkable vegan chicken sandwich with vegan cheese, which left an excellent impression. The service provided was friendly and generous. With years of consistent patronage, this Subway location has continuously delivered satisfaction by maintaining a pleasant atmosphere and serving delicious subs. It comes highly recommended with its welcoming staff, manageable crowds, and high-quality offerings.
Been coming here pretty much every week for years and it never disappoints. Really nice staff, not too busy and really good subs. 5/5 would recommend.

I ordered a Mexicana beef crunch and there was a little itsy bitsy beef in it and it was mostly covered in too much sauce. 🤢🤮 The previous time I came, my sandwich was filled properly. But today, this lady gave me one tomato, three pieces of japapeño and some really questionable beef. They also did not give me a napkin and did not wrap the sandwich. It was messy…. Paid 10 CHF for a saucey sandwich with no content. Will not come backe again if it is the same lady today in the afternoon. I always come to Subway to eat but, today was the WORST experience. As I am writing this review, I feel like puking thinking about my sandwich.

The former armory, now transformed into a Kunsthaus, named Kunst(Zeug)Haus, showcases contemporary Swiss art through several yearly exhibitions on its upper floor. On the ground level, visitors can find an expansive Robinson library that resembles an island within the Kunst(Zeug)Haus. Moving away from individual experiences in the restaurant Zeughaus-Grill, patrons can expect a pleasant ambiance with attentive and efficient service.

Thai restaurant
The Himmapan Lodge offers delectable Thai specialties, along with other garden bistros within the zoo premises. This restaurant boasts a stunning and diverse interior design, adorned with intricately carved wooden panels and sculptures. The staff members are extremely friendly, helpful, and attentive. The cuisine served here is truly authentic Thai fare, which adds an element of excitement to any dining experience. With its picturesque location overlooking lake Zurich, this eatery is particularly charming during the spring, summer, or autumn seasons.
This place is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm, friendly service that makes you feel right at home. The staff goes above and beyond, paying attention to every little detail, which really elevates the experience. And the food—wow. Every dish is packed with authentic Thai flavors, perfectly balanced and beautifully presented. Whether you’re going for the buffet or ordering à la carte, you really can’t go wrong. Everything is fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is just as impressive. The carved wooden décor gives the place a cozy, yet elegant feel, and being right next to the zoo adds a fun touch—you might even spot some animals! Overall, an amazing dining experience that’s definitely worth repeating. If you love great food and top-notch service, this is the place to be!

Himmapan Thai Buffet – Sunday Dinner ( 89.- excl. drinks) What an amazing night! Everything was just right. Haven’t been back to Thailand in a while, and this place honestly made me feel at home.

Wonderful place and very delicious food. The staff are very respectful, friendly and doing everything with so much attention, close to perfection. We took Buffet and everything was so good, so full off flavours, we ate really a bit of everything, because everything was delicious, maybe the only thing what could be a big improved would be the desserts sortiments , but they’re not that bad either. Overall an amazing experience, amazing place next to the Zoo and you can even see some animals. Definitely recommend it. 🙏🏽

In a totally relaxing and calming environment with lovely views towards the Zurichsee, Himmapan offers delicious, tasty food prepared with care and exhibiting wonderful flavor. The menu isn't huge, but has sufficient offerings. Expect a lovely tasting experience, coupled with a quiet, luxurious inviting atmosphere. Very welcoming and attentive service. The only drawback: I went mid-week and did NOT have a reservation. There are tables inside and outside. I was told that the reservation book for that night was full and only indoor tables were available (the place was 8-10% occupied, when I entered and MAYBE 12% occupied when I left). Most outside tables remained empty during my stay. I felt that they were very overprotective (and in America, such a statement meant that with a generous tip before the meal, a preferred outside table might suddenly become 'available'. My meal: One appetizer, one soup and one entree: 80 Chf, considered reasonable for this type location. I will return!

Restaurant
Lennox Restaurant Bar and Café is a fantastic brunch spot with a stunning atmosphere and delectable brunch fare. The concept revolves around choosing three small dishes from a wide array of both sweet and savory options, all of which are incredibly tasty. Among the favorites are the egg Lennox and birchermeusli, but every dish is mouthwatering. The coffee served here is exceptional, especially their cappuccino adorned with beautiful latte art.
Food: Food looks good and tastes even better! The brunch was not too sweet and still sweet enough. Portions are perfect as well. Service: Friendliest and most attentive waiters I have had in a while! Thank you for making us feel comfortable! Price: Reasonable pricing. Brunch was around 39 per person and about 6 for a fresh orange juice. Atmosphere: Gives you the feeling of being in St. Tropez

Dining at Lennox Beach is a wonderful thing. The entire restaurant is a tropical and beautiful beach-like adventure. Menus have monkeys drawn on them and some even have tribal face tattoos. The Momos they serve are very expensive but are wonderfully made. I absolutely recommend the ‘Burger Party’ as there is a choice between several patties to add. Beef or Chicken (which nicely give you two patties (if you want to save one for later) or the larger Vegan one which is amazing. It must be said that these are accompanied with a large portion n of fries. Fries need sauce to enjoy and the sauces they provide are great but very very very small in comparison to the amount of fries you will be given. Choose your sauce wisely as their containers are small ( or maybe pack your own sauces in your purse from home ). We do love the staff here and the amazing cocktails they serve and will always return to enjoy Lennox Beach

When you approach Lennox for the first time, it gives you a beachy holiday feeling. You can tell the owners put a lot of thought into the vibe and setup, which is indeed very nice. Unfortunately the food (even though it looks good) is rather blunt and prepared with limited love. You can tell that e.g. all but the poached egg of the “Eggs Lennox” was prepared way ahead and the sauce was already dry. French Toast had only very little topping and pancakes were dry. Further portions are very small. Appearance 5 stars, food quality 1-2 stars.

A Mikonos-style restaurant in the center of Raperwil! Excellent interior and exterior! Polite and friendly staff! Delicious food :) It's So clever that they use a compo brunch -so you can taste more than one plate!

*Brunch Edition* Great brunch spot! Beautiful ambience and delicious brunch food: the concept is to pick three small dishes from a huge variety of delicious sweet and savory options. My fav are egg Lennox and birchermeusli but all of them are delicious. Coffee is also top notch especially cappuccino with a proper latte art. I have been here 4 times so far and will definitely be coming back! ☺️ Small remarks: when it’s busy it’s not possible to pick desired three options but only predefined. Apple pay sometimes doesn’t work so physical card is necessary. Again small remarks but deserved 5 stars without a doubt! 🤩

We had a very nice brunch at Lennox in Rapperswil, surrounded by a little beach, palm trees and cozy sitting arrangement (the atmosphere reminded me a bit of the typical Tulum vibe). Their brunch offering revolves around different menus with 3 breakfast dishes included, costing between CHF 34 - 38. We've had the Eggs Lennox (similar to Eggs Benedict, but can also be ordered vegetarian), the Hummus with Pita and the Yoghurt with figs, nuts and honey. Everything was delicious and it felt like a mini tropical vacation in the middle of Switzerland. Can recommend!

Bächlihof, Jucker Farm AG is a popular destination, especially during the fall when the pumpkin exhibition takes place. The farm offers a wide range of local products at its shop and features a cafe known for its brunches. Visitors can enjoy wandering through the vast farm, exploring festive pumpkin installations that make for great photo opportunities. Families will appreciate the various activities available, including interacting with animals and letting kids run around to burn off energy.
Bächlihof is a fantastic spot for families with young children. Kids can enjoy playing on the sandbank, feeding friendly goats, and seeing pigs and rabbits up close.

(Translated by Google) We camped there with a group. Beautiful meadow and great service. Friendly staff. The group loved the slide. The water was naturally a bit muddy on a busy day and not comparable to other "calm" lakes in Switzerland. (Original) Haben dort mit einer Gruppe gezeltet. Schöne wiese und toller Service. Freundlicher Kontakt. Die Gruppe hat die Rutsche super gefunden. Das Wasser war an dem stark besuchten Tag natürlich etwas grützig und nicht vergleichbar mit anderen "ruhigen" Seen der Schweiz.

(Translated by Google) For me, it would be a childhood dream come true. After a good 30 years, I finally had the pleasure of showing my children where I always went swimming with my parents as a child. In 1994, we emigrated to Germany and only ever returned for vacation. And this year, I finally spent a whole day there with my children. It was just like back then, only this time I was the father 😋. Highly recommended. The best place for swimming on hot days. (Original) Für mich würden Kindheitsträume war. Nach gut 30 Jahren, kam ich in den Genuss meinen Kinder zu zeigen, wo ich als Kind mit meinen Eltern immer schwimmen war. 1994 sind wir nach Deutschland ausgewandert immer waren wir nur in Urlaub wieder dort. Und dieses Jahr war ich dann auch mit meinen Kindern endlich mal eine ganzen Tag da. Es war wie damals, nur dass ich diesmal der Vater war 😋. Absolut zu empfehlen. Bester Ort zum Baden am heißen Tagen

Monastery
Nestled in the serene landscape of Bollingen, near Rapperswil-Jona, Wurmsbach Abbey is a captivating Cistercian monastery that dates back to 1259. This historic site not only boasts stunning architecture but also offers breathtaking views of Lake Zurich. Visitors are enchanted by its tranquil atmosphere and the warm hospitality of the nuns who reside there. The abbey features a beautiful church, cloisters, and well-maintained gardens that invite peaceful reflection.
(Translated by Google) I was here for a week for the study days. It was such a great time, I couldn't have imagined it before. Incredible hospitality, delicious and far too much food every few hours (if you still want to learn :D), An incredibly great environment for breaks, walking by the lake and swimming in the lake. Use of the indoor swimming pool, renting bicycles... Everything is possible here and yet I made extremely good progress with my learning material because the atmosphere created by the other learners is also very special. I would recommend everyone to come here, be it to study or as a single guest. (Original) Ich war hier eine Woche lang für die Lerntage. Es war eine so tolle Zeit, das hätte ich mir vorher nicht vorstellen können. Eine wahnsinnige Gastfreundschaft, leckeres und viel zu viel Essen alle paar Stunden (wenn man noch lernen möchte :D), Eine wahnsinnig tolle Umgebung für die Pausen, spazieren am und schwimmen im See. Nutzung des Hallenbads, Leihen von Fahrrädern... Alles ist hier möglich und dennoch bin ich mit meinem Lernstoff extrem gut vorangekommen, weil die Atmospäre durch die anderen Lernenden auch eine ganz besondere ist. Ich würde jedem empfehlen hierher zu kommen, sei es auch um zu lernen oder auch als Einzelgast.

We received a warm welcome and are grateful for the short but wonderful time. (Original) Danke für eure Gastfreundschaft!

Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und sind dankbar über die kurze aber schöne Zeit.

(Translated by Google) The incredibly picturesque Mariazell Wurmsbach monastery, located directly on the Obersee (Lake Zurich), is a Cistercian monastery that has existed since 1259 and is therefore older than Switzerland. It has been inhabited continuously since then and consists of the monastery church with cloister, the monastery buildings, the guest house, the walled monastery garden, the cemetery, a farm and the former girls' boarding school. Most of the historic buildings date from the 17th century. Today's monastery church was built between 1600 and 1620. The cloister was built between 1615 and 1620 by Abbess Maria Dumeisen. In 1767 the church was redesigned in Baroque style with a Rococo ceiling. The last major remodeling took place in 1866 when the church became too small due to the opening of the boarding school. From 1836 to 2022 the monastery ran a school for girls, and from 1842 it operated a girls' boarding school. This was closed in 2022 due to a lack of students. (Original) Das unglaublich malerisch, direkt am Obersee (Zürichsee) gelegene Kloster Mariazell Wurmsbach ist ein Zisterzienserinnen Kloster, das bereits seit 1259 existiert und damit älter als die Schweiz ist. Es ist seitdem ununterbrochen bewohnt und besteht aus der Klosterkirche mit Kreuzgang, den Klostergebäuden, dem Gästehaus, dem mit einer Mauer umgebenen Klostergarten, dem Friedhof, einem Bauernhof und dem ehemaligen Mädcheninternat. Die meisten historischen Gebäude stammen aus dem 17. Jahrhundert. Die heutige Klosterkirche entstand in den Jahren um 1600-1620. Der Kreuzgang wurde von 1615- 1620 durch die Äbtissin Maria Dumeisen errichtet. 1767 wurde die Kirche barock und mit Rokokodecke umgestaltet. Eine letzte grosse Umgestaltung erfolgte 1866, als die Kirche durch die Eröffnung des Internats zu klein geworden war. Von 1836 bis 2022 hatte das Kloster eine Schule für Mädchen, ab 1842 ein Mädcheninternat betrieben. Dieses wurde 2022 aufgrund von Schülerinnenmangel geschlossen.

We stopped at Rapperswil during our tour of Heidiland and Liechtenstein from Zurich. The castle was built in the early 13th century AD by the house of Rapperswil in the former independent city of Rapperswil. The castle and the museum are listed in the Swiss inventory of cultural property of national and regional significance as Class A objects of national importance. It is about one hour drive from Zurich. The view from castle of Lake Zurich and surrounding mountains was stunning. Only limited portions are open for visitors, According to their website many halls and courtyard are available for weddings, meetings and parties. There is also boat service up to Zurich. It is worth spending some time in this small beautiful quaint town.

A nice place to enjoy a sunny Sunday or an early morning. We love to go there, whenever we can because you have the feeling you are somehow on a small lovely and quite island in the middle of the city. My kids enjoy watching the ducks and the majestic swans passing by on the lack, but also they could look for minutes to the deer and the stag in the beautifully landscaped mini garden especially for them. I love to go there even alone and to enjoy a coffee while enjoying the silence (during the Sundays it can become a little crowded but during the week days it is very nice).

(Translated by Google) A visit to the Rapperswil City Museum is like a short journey back in time, right in the heart of the historic old town. The building itself is a gem: lovingly restored, full of charm, and surrounded by narrow streets that preserve the magic of past centuries. The museum surprises visitors on every floor with exciting insights into the history of Rapperswil and the region. Whether it's old crafts, city history, or changing special exhibitions, everything is designed with great attention to detail and invites discovery. What's particularly great is that both young and old will find something to enjoy here: children will find interactive elements and exciting stories, while adults enjoy the carefully curated exhibits and the impressive atmosphere. The exhibition is presented in a varied and modern way without losing its historical character. You can sense that the people here are passionate about their work, not just preserving history but bringing it to life. A special highlight is the view from the upper floor, from where you can see directly over the rooftops of the old town and down to the lake. A moment that perfectly rounds off the visit. Conclusion: A beautiful, meticulously designed museum that brings culture to life. A true insider tip in Rapperswil – worth a visit for the whole family. (Original) Ein Besuch im Stadtmuseum Rapperswil ist wie eine kleine Zeitreise mitten im Herzen der historischen Altstadt.

Ob alte Handwerkskunst, Stadtgeschichte oder wechselnde Sonderausstellungen alles ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail gestaltet und lädt zum Entdecken ein. Besonders schön ist, dass hier Groß und Klein auf ihre Kosten kommen: Kinder finden interaktive Elemente und spannende Geschichten, während Erwachsene die sorgfältig kuratierten Exponate und die beeindruckende Atmosphäre genießen. Die Ausstellung ist abwechslungsreich und modern präsentiert, ohne den historischen Charakter zu verlieren. Man spürt, dass hier Menschen mit Leidenschaft arbeiten, die Geschichte nicht nur bewahren, sondern erlebbar machen wollen. Ein besonderes Highlight ist der Ausblick von der oberen Etage von hier sieht man direkt über die Dächer der Altstadt und hinunter zum See. Ein Moment, der den Besuch perfekt abrundet. Fazit: Ein wunderschönes, detailreich gestaltetes Museum, das Kultur lebendig macht. Ein echter Geheimtipp in Rapperswil – sehenswert für die ganze Familie👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Thai Orchid is a Thai restaurant that provides a pleasant ambiance for diners looking to enjoy delicious Thai cuisine. The manager and staff are exceptionally friendly, ensuring a warm welcome to all guests. The service is efficient, with quick delivery of orders. The food presentation is impeccable, and the taste of the dishes is outstanding. While some may find the portion size of the papaya salad slightly expensive at CHF18.
Great Thai food in a convenient location in Rapperswil. Easily walkable from the train station. The service was quick and very friendly. We never had to wait long for anything. We even got a small hors d'oeuvre on the house before our appetizer. Can recommend the fried wontons, pat thai (the tofu option is really delicious, they do a great job with the tofu!) and the pat gra pau (it is extremely delicious but really spicy!). Take care in the summer because there are wasps outside when you're trying to eat. But it is not easy for them to remove them :).

We were served very quickly. The presentation of the dishes, the taste, everything is there. I did find that the small portion of papaya salad that I had at the start and which is charged at CHF18.- is still expensive however I wanted to take my leftover away and the waitress gave me an extra portion of rice which was not charged I really appreciated that! On the whole it was really good. I would recommend.

We had a great evening! Down to earth, affordable extremely tasty food. Rappi is generally overpriced for all the tourists, this place just left you feeling good and not taken advantage of. We will definitely become regulars.

Three of us ate here in Nov 22. It was close to our hotel and we hadn’t read any reviews. The food is amazing. Probably the best pizza I have ever had. Very fresh. Cooked to perfection. Lovely staff and restaurant. Pic shows the prawn pizza. Superb.

Used to be the best pizza in Rapperswil until recently. Last couple of times the quality was below par: vegetables on top of the pizza were not cooked on one occasion and the pizza base was burnt in the next order. Hope the quality is restored to the earlier standards!!

Bridge
Sights & Landmarks
Historic Sites
Holzbrücke Rapperswil-Hurden is a picturesque wooden bridge that stretches over Lake Zurich, offering a delightful walking experience with stunning views. The bridge provides a safe and family-friendly environment, featuring informative boards about aquatic wildlife and benches for relaxation. While the historical value of the bridge may not be significant, it offers an ideal setting for leisurely strolls and photo opportunities showcasing the beauty of the lake and the Alps. However, visitors should be cautious when the wood is wet.
Top! Spanning 841 meters, it is one of the longest wooden pedestrian bridges in Europe. Originally built in 1737, it replaced an earlier bridge and was constructed using local wood to withstand the area's harsh weather. In addition to its functional role, the bridge has become a scenic walk, offering stunning views of the lake and the Swiss Alps.

This is a wonderful location. I had a great time here with my friends. I highly suggest visiting this amazing viewpoint with friends and family members. You can even take your pets with you to walk. Make sure not to put any garbage in the water. The water is pretty clear, clean and well maintained, which is fantastic for this area. Everybody is super friendly, nice welcoming I would always go back to this place.

The Holzbrucke is a modern replacement (2001) of a 14th century construction that was constantly destroyed by war or the weather. It is the longest wooden bridge in Switzerland (almost 1km) and is part of the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. We walked most of the length of the bridge before turning round as the sun, and temperature dropped. We watched the sunset, enjoying the clear skies and wonderful views.

Hurden

Nestled in the picturesque municipality of Freienbach, Hurden is a charming village with a rich history dating back to 1217. The name "Hurden" originates from the peninsula and the traditional fish traps known as "Hürden" or "Hurden," which were once essential to the local fishing practices. This quaint Swiss village offers visitors a glimpse into its past while surrounded by stunning natural beauty.

Lützelau

(26)
Island
Lützelau is a charming little island nestled in the picturesque Lake Zurich, perfect for those seeking a delightful escape. This idyllic spot offers visitors the chance to savor Swiss and regional cuisine in a cozy atmosphere, making it an ideal location for breakfast or brunch. The stunning lakeside setting enhances the experience, inviting guests to relax and enjoy their meals while soaking in the serene views.
(Translated by Google) We spent a night on the island with our scout group. The island warden was friendly and we were given a nice spot for our tents. We enjoyed our stay as a group and the prices for the overnight stay were also reasonable. The sanitary facilities are clean and easily accessible. At the weekend there are also a lot of restaurant visitors, but they leave late in the evening and then real peace returns to the island. Please note that the island can only be reached with your own boat or with a taxibot. (Original) Wir haben eine Nacht mit unserer Pfadfindergruppe auf der Insel verbracht. Der Inselwart war freundlich und wir bekamen einen schönen Platz für unsere Zelte. Wir haben als Gruppe den Aufenhalt genossen und auch die Preise für die Übernachtung sind in Ordnung. Die Sanitäranlagen sind sauber gut erreichbar. Am Wochenende gibt es halt auch viele Restaurantbesucher, die aber am späten Abend auch wieder abfahren und danach wirkliche Ruhe auf der Insel einkehrt. Zu beachten ist, dass die Insel nur mit einem eigenen Boot oder mitels eines Taxibots erreichbar ist.

(Translated by Google) Three stars is not a bad rating for me! The location is great, incredibly beautiful. Shuttle works perfectly. Prices relatively high, quality food not a highlight, but OK. Inselwart has the shop under control, everything is clean, tidy and well organized. The hipster attitude was a bit annoying, where the guest can be happy to be entertained. Well, Zurich. Nevertheless: go, enjoy, experience. Again: 3 stars is good. If we had received a more friendly welcome, there would be 4. We will spend a lot of time on this island outdoors and then hopefully be able to correct it upwards. (Original) Drei Sterne sind bei mir keine schlechte Bewertung! Die Location ist super, unfassbar schön gar. Shuttle funktioniert einwandfrei. Preise relativ hoch, Qualität Essen kein Highlight, aber OK. Inselwart hat den Laden im Griff, alles sauber, aufgeräumt, gut organisiert. Etwas genervt hat das Hipster Gehabe, wo der Gast froh sein darf, bewirtet zu werden. Na ja, Züri halt. Trotzdem: Hingehen, geniessen, erleben. Nochmals: 3 Sterne sind gut. Wären wir etwas freundlicher empfangen worden, gäbe es 4. Werden in den Freien viel Zeit auf dieser Insel verbringen und dann hoffentlich nach oben korrigieren können.

(Translated by Google) Friday and Saturday evenings were great! Good atmosphere and well organized. Great bands; Something for every taste. Personally, I found the dismantling on Sunday very chaotic. While some of the food stalls were still open and taking advantage of the nice weather; Others dismantled them and had to drive through the crowd down by the lake. The restaurants' umbrellas had to be folded down so that the trucks could get through. Too bad... (Original) Freitag- und Samstagabend waren top! Gute Stimmung und gut organisiert. Tolle Bands; für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei. Den Abbau am Sonntag fand ich persönlich sehr chaotisch organisiert. Während einige der Food-Stände noch geöffnet waren und das schöne Wetter genutzt haben; haben andere abgebaut, und mussten dadurch unten am See mitten durch die Menge fahren;. Sonnenschirme der Restaurants mussten eingeklappt werden, damit die LkWs überhaupt durchkamen. Schade...

Dating back to 1229, this small yet serene church offers a unique atmosphere that transports you through time.

(Translated by Google) We chose a picture that was released for sale according to the exhibitor. The contract was signed and there was great joy. The next day there was a sober email stating that the picture had been sold elsewhere or that the buyer had already transferred the money, not to mention that she had to appear on site in person without a contract. Our contract was then canceled. Mistakes can happen, of course. Nevertheless, our disappointment was great. What annoyed us most, however, was the very sober treatment of this mishap. No offer to welcome us to the gallery again, no offer to accommodate us in any way, nothing! It was just bad luck for us. Ultimately, painting is also a form of business, and Mr. Knie should also be subject to rules of decency, especially when the person being cheated is in the right. We felt ripped off. Unfortunately, today we look at Mr. Knie's pictures with mixed feelings. (Original) Wir hatten uns für ein Bild entschiden, welches gemäss dem Aussteller zum Verkauf frei gegeben war. Der Vertrag wurde unterzeichnet und die Freude war gross. Tags darauf folgte eine nüchterne Mail mit dem Hinweis, dass das Bild anderweitig verkauft wurde bzw. diese Käuferin das Geld bereits überwiesen habe, notabene ohne Vertrag und persönlich vor Ort zu erscheinen. Unser Vertrag wurde darauf storniert. Fehler können passieren, klar. Trotzdem war unsere Enttäuschung gross. Was uns jedoch am meisten ärgerte, ist die sehr nüchterne Abhandlung dieses Missgeschicks. Kein Angebot, uns nochmal in der Galerie zu empfangen, kein Angebot für ein Entgegenkommen in irgendeiner Form, nichts! Es war halt einfach Pech für uns. Auch Malen ist letztlich eine Geschäftsform, und auch bei Herrn Knie sollten Anstandsregeln gelten, insbesondere dann, wenn der Geprellte im Recht ist. Wir fühlten uns verarscht. Leider schauen wir heute die Bilder von Herrn Knie mit gemischten Gefühlen an.

My whole party finished their meal before I had my (cold) burger… very disappointed. I was given the wrong burger. First I complained it did not have bacon and they just added one little piece of it… After two bites, I realised it was spicy and therefore the wrong burger. Had to complained again and they insisted it was the right one and that it was another burger from the order. I explained that the other one was another burger that was right and showed them that white sauce (Mc crispy chicken bacon) is very different from orange sauce (spicy crispy chicken). After 3 attempts to say I was wrong they gave me an old burger that was sitting there on a table next to the kitchen…

Very good restaurant for chinese, japanese or thai food. The service staff is friendly and quick. The presentation of the food is great and it tastes amazing. The duck was brilliant. The portions look kind of small but they are indeed big. You are full after one course. There is a hige negative point. There are two seating (18-20 and 20-22.30). So you have to eat quick and can not really enjoy the evening. Recommanded and always likely to come back.

Sushi Experience Review If you're in the mood for sushi and looking for a spot that offers something special, this place definitely has it. The sushi was genuinely good, with a freshness to the fish that you can taste in every bite. The staff were friendly, adding to the overall positive experience. They also had some rarities on the menu that you don't often see, which was a treat for sushi enthusiasts looking to try something new or unique. However, be prepared for the prices. Coming from the States, we found the bill to be much higher than expected. While the quality justifies the cost to some extent, it's definitely on the pricier side. If you're not used to high-end sushi pricing, this might come as a surprise. Despite the cost, I would go back. The quality of the sushi and the friendly service make it worth it for a special occasion or when you're really craving that high-quality sushi experience. Just be mindful of your budget when planning your visit. For those seeking a memorable sushi night out, this place checks the boxes for quality and uniqueness, just be ready for the accompanying price tag. #whoyouchoosematters #travelwithbobbiejean

Very nice sushi 🍣 served at the tables or the sushi bar. The food quality is excellent and the sushi is freshly prepared in front of the guests. The variety of fish is good with some potential to increase it. Always worthy to enjoy some nice food in this place.

Unique sushi experience located in the heart of Rapperswil. Probably the best tasting sushi I’ve ever had. I plan on returning on future visits to the city!

Not your moneys worth !! They deliveresd an order of 100 ChF for two orders which combined had a total of 8 schrimps . One of the orders was the the red curry shrimp dish with 3 schrimps in in and they had the audacity to NOT even clean the shrimps. So you have to go fishing for shrimps in red sauce then take them out and clean them wich is absolutely ridiculous!!!!! Live in Switzerland for 32 Years and for the first time i felt i was being robbed after an order of food

Food is not bad but pricy. Would recommend table sitting rather than conveyer belt counter sitting. At the counter sitting, you can only order what’s on the conveyer belt, which is not ideal. Nonetheless, what was served were tasty.

Day 4

Off the beaten path
For day 4, if you don’t mind the extra trek, today covers more off the beaten path places like Golf - Rottal. Not quite as popular as Rapperswil-Jona, but still highly rated among many travelers. Accounting for getting around and average time spent, today’s activities could take about 6 hours.

Enea Tree Museum, located in Rapperswil, offers a peaceful and stunning experience with its beautiful sculptures and artwork. The museum's serene grounds are perfect for a leisurely stroll or to relax amidst the impressive trees and sculptures. Visitors can also enjoy some time on the museum's furniture while appreciating the artistry of Enea and his team. The museum showcases an impressive display of garden design, art, and spiritual vision, making it much more than just a typical garden exhibit.
If this is not my favorite event venue in Switzerland, it surely is the best one in the world. One of those places that make you reflect on what type of event you would organize there, inspire your next step in life and admire beauty in its true tree form :)

A dreamy garden venue with a fountain and lush greenery. Close to Zurich city and airport, it’s perfect for international guests and offers seamless logistics for weddings surrounded by nature. The day of the wedding I photographed there was really hot, but while it was unbearable in the city, this beautiful oasis was the best place to be. The staff were so lovely with not only the wedding guests, but with the vendors are well! (copyright of photography by Kim Raaf)

A beautifully zen experience - immerse yourself in the beautiful landscape and just enjoy the calm. There is a small playground for children amidst the tranquility, and the little ones loved witnessing and touching a 20 million year old tree! The cafe served nice coffee, beer, wine and baked goods and there was a lovely seating area outside. Recommended for a relaxing few hours away from the hustle bustle.

A hidden gem. What an interesting ‘outdoor museum’ with amazing trees and interesting history behind some of these gorgeous trees. Stunning landscape , greenery , tranquility and hearing the sounds of nature. It is just amazing to see all the hard work and dedication that has gone into creating and maintaining such a beautiful place to be educated and to regain your energy. There is a little onsite area to have a coffee and a slice of cake. Very well worth the visit.

Amazing place! Beautiful cypresses lead you to the parking and you feel immersed instantly. I could spend hours here. Adults pay 15 CHF and 5 CHF for the map with and an online audio guide.

I was especially taken with the sculptures, the trees are beautifully cared for grass quite tidy It might be a good idea for non german speakers to get somehow more information printed in English about sculptures and trees but i loved the juxtaposition between them. For stars only because I found the price a little expensive and wish the admission ticket would get you in on perhaps another day too or for a month The day i went was extremely hot and i wasn’t able to stay for long

Excellent outdoor activity and experience for garden and nature lovers: the landscape architecture is incredible, really. It’s combined with art and water points throughout the park and has an incredible range and variety of plants, trees, flowers. Highly recommendable visit.

Austrian restaurant

Nestled at the edge of Rapperswil's charming old town, Quellenhof is a delightful dining destination that showcases the best of regional cuisine. The airy dining room sets a relaxed atmosphere where guests can savor an array of dishes, including delectable seafood and hearty meat options. With a menu that caters to various dietary preferences, including gluten-free and vegan choices, there's something for everyone. Don't miss out on their traditional Swiss and Austrian specialties; the Wiener Schnitzel is particularly noteworthy!
Absolutely incredible! We were just hungry, wanted food after a hike, and eventually stumbled upon this place. I thought It’d be like a Zeughauskeller, but Nohohohooo, it’s a very fancy meat restaurant, with fancy people on dates … and us, a ragtag team of misfits, marinated in their own sweat. Regardless of our appearance the staff was extremely attentive and friendly. At all times we felt super appreciated. Plus, the food was amazing!!! After Vienna visit update: Holy veal, the Schnitzel here was actually better than the one in Vienna. I’ll come here again, soon, hopefully.

The servers are friendly and very professional, the food is the authentic austrian cuisine at a high level and the atmosphere is classy. Even in the toilet you will find perfume and deodorant. There is nothing to complain about. I've had a great time in Quellenhof and I will definitely come back!

Delicious Italian Food. There was a concert practice going on in front of the restaurant, so got a great view to that well.

The menu has a splendid choice of Austrian dishes, well cooked and presented. The service is extremely friendly and professional. The tables are somewhat too closely placed. It can get quite noisy if the restaurant is full, which it always is. Reserving a table in advance is recommended.
