A 4-hour hiking tour starts in Schönenberg ZH and proceeds alongside the Sihl River via Sihlbrugg to Sihlwald. Shortly after Sihlmatt, the hiking trail takes you to an old tunnel of the Zürich Water Supply. After the tunnel the gorge becomes narrow and turns into the Sihlsprung, or Sihl Rapids. The Sihl wends its way for several meters through high rock faces. Subsequently, rapids and sand banks define the landscape. Near Sihlbrugg you have to leave this impressive natural landscape for a short while and cross a busy road. Now your hiking tour skirts the riverside of the Sihl before reaching Sihlwald. Near the Sihlwald Railway Station you will find the Nature Center Pro Natura, which is home to a beaver and otter breeding facility. It also features an interesting exhibition.
