Wadenswil

Wädenswil straddles the rise from Lake Zurich’s southwestern shore to the Zimmerberg ridge in the canton of Zurich, a position that has connected a lakeside town centre with vineyards, orchards and higher rural districts. The Au peninsula projects into the lake just north of town, giving this stretch of the Zürichsee a distinctive shoreline. Wädenswil is also an important Swiss centre for applied study of food, life sciences and the environment: the Zurich University of Applied Sciences has its School of Life Sciences and Facility Management here. Rail and boat links tie it closely to Zurich while preserving a more small-town rhythm.
