The Hash House Harriers are an International Group founded in 1938 with over 70,000 active worldwide members. We are a social running (we have a lot of walkers as well!) group that focuses on on the social element rather than just running. We meet regularly once a month) every second Saturday in the month.

Welcome to Swiss Alpine Adventure, the biggest and most active cycling group in Switzerland. We cater for all interested bikers who are searching for like-minded people to enjoy Switzerland on two wheels. The group is very much about inclusion and we want to help as many people as possible see why Switzerland is such a great country for outdoor sports. While we are based in Zurich our members are situated throughout the country and we regularly organise events to different cycling hotspots. If t …

This group is open to any rock climbers, hikers, or mountaineers who want to explore the beautiful mountains and crags of Switzerland. Beginners, bouldering, sport, trad, and alpine climbers all welcome. We try to organize a climbing outing at least once a week during the summer, including single-and multi-pitch routes, adventure hikes, and via ferratas. Our outings take us all over Switzerland (it is a small country!), so you do not need to be a Bern "local" to join. We are also a very loosely …

Ok everyone! The idea is that we have a group of people in Baden who want to catch up a couple of times a week and have a game of football/soccer or maybe basketball, or whatever we want to do! I'm keen on the idea of going mountain biking also! I'm new in Switzerland so anyone wanting to join is more than welcome :) The main point of this group is just to have a bit of fun! Something the Swiss seem to be missing out on ;)

The Focus initially will be on downhill skiing (snowboarders welcome), I ski mostly on piste but would like to get more off piste ex …

This is a group for anyone who knows (or wants to know) the Zurich district of Oerlikon. Ideally you live/work in Zurich/ Oerlikon so we can meet up and check out the area and organize events depending on weather conditions. I started this group because quite a lot of people are working/living in Oerlikon who do not know each other but stay/live near by. This group is for everyone, especially expats who wish to share their "specific" Oerlikon experiences with other "Oerlikonien".

The purpose of the group is to meet other people who enjoy swimming. Whether you are looking for training partners to race up and down the pool, friends to join in a swim across a lake or like-minded water rats on a river-swimming outing, we hope you will join us. The group is targeted towards a wide range of swimming abilities. However, it's not a swimming course, so please be advised that you should to be able to swim and that your safety is in your own hands. Everyone is welcome. Members are …

Summer is finally here :-). Beginners & Pros are welcome to participate and make this summer a memorable one.

This MeetUp is a way for fellow intermediate tennis players to find each other. There are many of us who have enough flexibility in our schedules to play during the week when court availability is cheaper and more plentiful. Therefore, the MeetUps that I organize will be during the week. However, any member is free to organize a meetup at any other time as well. This meetup is for intermediate level players only. We like to be a bit strict in that so that we are always guaranteed a good challeng …

(Deutscher Text siehe unten) If you have always dreamt of sailing on a big yacht or if you want to learn to sail or if you already have your sailing experience, but never found the better and warmer weather conditions you would prefer: This is the opportunity to fulfil your desire. Try it, at least once in your life. Many believe that sailing is elitist and requires much theoretical and practical preparation. However, the difficulty about sailing lies rather with finding the right boat, the peop …
