This is a win-win!
Exploring the city on foot is fun and active, but having the added benefit of visiting a variety of the best chocolatiers in the universe AND sampling their creations, definitely turns things up a notch. The other benefit of doing it this way is that you can kiss your guilt goodbye and actually enjoy the sweet sampling guilt-free, knowing that the step count is balancing everything out :)
The Sweetest Route: The Urban Chocolate Adventure
The chocolate trails through Zurich are literally endless, there's something for everyone and enough stairs and kilometers to keep us fit while we navigate from one to the other. As usual, the focus is on the hiking and the idea is that we keep a good pace, but the "way points" are now different chocolate shops sprinkled throughout the city. Some are iconic and old-school like Sprüngli and Teüscher, others are in the chocolate stratosphere like Max Chocolatier, and others still are all about bean to bar creations, sustainability and innovation like Graçoa, La Flor and Taucherli, and many others in between.
So, whether you’re a chocolate lover visiting Zurich, or a local looking for a fun day out, Zurich's chocolate hikes are an urban adventure not to miss.
In Zurich, every bite counts—so step out there and earn your chocolates one delicious piece at a time!
