Flussbad Oberer Letten

A 400-metre swimming channel in the Limmat below the Letten railway viaduct, free to enter, with showers and a narrow strip of lawn along the graffitied concrete. The current carries you downstream and can run strong, so it suits confident swimmers rather than small children. Petanque and beach volleyball fill the land side; there is no wheelchair access.
