Quer durch das Limmattal: Lugibach-Runde

At around 8.5 km, the Lugibach loop is the longest of the four loops between the Sulperg and Rüsler ridges in the lower Limmat valley. It spans the area between the right bank of the Limmat and the Sulperg between Würenlos and Wettingen. Accordingly, there is much to discover on this route. The theme of landscape change on the Central Plateau can be experienced in exemplary fashion on this tour. Intensively and extensively used agricultural areas, open gravel pits and scattered settlements alternate with industrial areas and numerous traffic routes. Accordingly, the most diverse needs collide. These include the renaturation of culverted streams as well as the construction of a foot and cycle path bridge over the Limmat. Other special features that can be discovered on the Lugibach loop are relics of the former cultural landscape, more precisely the remains of historic moats, or the valley view into the Limmat valley and the Furttal valley.

The "Sulperg-Rüsler corridor" project aims to preserve and promote these open spaces. Agricultural use is an essential component, but the importance for leisure and recreation is constantly increasing. An adventure trail with marked stations and information steles leading through the corridor will be completed in 2022. The project is part of Regionale 2025.
