Customs and Traditions
Celebrate, marvel and learn: the region’s many traditions and customs are always a good excuse to have a wonderful time with the people you love.
The Kinderregion
Kinderregion inspires families to explore the greater Zurich area together. Parents, grandparents, godparents and other caregivers discover what there is to see and do with kids across Zurich, Lake Zurich, Winterthur, Schwyz, Glarnerland, Zug and Liechtenstein – from well-loved classics to lesser-known gems.
Curated themed lists, an event calendar and practical filters (e.g. by season, region or interests) make it easy to plan the next family outing. A regular newsletter highlights new discoveries, while the blog shares real experiences from families exploring Kinderregion firsthand.
