After the heavy thunderstorms there is a lot of loose dead wood and fallen trees can block paths. Please be careful and do not rest under scrawny trees.

Due to the ongoing heat wave and drought, there is a considerable risk of forest fires in the canton of Zurich (level 3 out of 5). We kindly ask you not to light fires in the Sihlwald. You may use the marked fireplaces in the Langenberg Wildlife Park. Please always extinguish the fire completely.

Update Corona protective measures

The currently valid COVID-19 Ordinance of June 23, 2021 provides for further relaxations. Based on the national measures, the following rules will apply to the Zurich Wilderness Park from Saturday, June 26, 2021:
