Lido Longing

One of the biggest mistakes on can do in Zürich, is not to swim. There are:
  • 7 indoor pools
  • 7 outdoor pools
  • 6 seaside lidos
  • 5 riverine lidos.
Temperatures are already above twenty degrees Celsius but unfortunately, the outdoor facilities will not be open until the 14th of May.

Some years ago, I took the opportunity to take an outdoor swim on the opening day. After half an hour, I had to leave the 17 degrees warm/cold water urgently to have a pee.

Our outdoor facilities open on 7th May. The boys are already planning the picnic!

The Pfaffifkersee came in very handy today!
