Introducción
Pasada Dietikon, la ciudad con corazón de pueblo, todo se vuelve más tranquilo. El Reppisch serpentea por el valle casi siempre sin edificar, alimentado por el idílico panorama natural del romántico lago Türlersee. Atravesamos cómodamente cañaverales, pasamos por el monumento a Zwingli y el monasterio de Kappel en Albis y bajamos hasta el lago de Zug.

Descripción
Leaving Dietikon, the cycle path follows the Reppisch River and enters the valley of the same name. Resembling a gingerbread house from a fairytale, the Färberhüsli on the edge of town used to house the local museum. The Reppisch is one of the largest tributaries of the Limmat and flows through the cantons of Aargau and Zurich from its source in the Türlersee lake. Together with the Chrebsbach, it is nearly 26 kilometres long in total. Apart from the stretches around Dietikon and Birmensdorf, the banks of the Reppisch are largely unspoilt, making it one of the last-remaining watercourses in the Canton of Zurich to be more or less still in its natural state.
The cycle path dips into the forest at Reppischhof before a gentle climb up to Birmensdorf and a brief stretch alongside a main road. On the left, you’ll spot the 870-metre-tall Uetliberg, the «local mountain» for the city of Zurich. You can enjoy a magnificent view of the Black Forest and the Valais, Bernese and Glarus Alps from its observation tower. The route crosses the village of Sellenbüren, famous for its ruined hilltop castle believed to have been built in the 11th century.
The countryside regains its verdant hues just before the Türlersee. This lake is around 1.4 kilometres long and is surrounded by forests, making it a popular spot with locals from the Zurich region looking for rest and relaxation. The route leaves the Reppisch behind here and instead follows the lake shore through some quiet countryside. At Kappel am Albis, you pass the monument to Ulrich Zwingli and Kappel Abbey, a former Cistercian monastery and gardens that are well worth a visit. The place gained fame as the site of the battle of the Five States against troops from Zurich, in which the reformer Ulrich Zwingli was killed. The monastery café, with its beautiful terrace and a herb garden, is the perfect place to stop for cake.
Just beyond Uerzlikon, the route crosses the Steihuserwald forest with its selection of picnic spots before dropping down to Steinhausen and crossing the Lorze River, which flows into Lake Zug. Your cycle tour ends in the town of Zug itself at the Hirschgarten, a small lakeside park with a handful of sika deer.
