Jugendherberge Richterswil

You're sure to feel at home on the Richterswil Horn, a peninsula on Lake Zurich! It accommodates this youth hostel, with a large park and direct access to the lake.

The grand house, formerly a silk factory, offers its guests comfortable rooms with a view of the lake, seminar and meeting rooms, and a charming terrace. The green-blue waters of Lake Zurich are the jewel in the crown for any event or active sports holiday. There are also numerous attractions in the surrounding area, such as the ruins of Old Wädenswil Castle, marked by the turmoil of the Reformation, or the impressive Einsiedeln Abbey, a place of pilgrimage. Especially the "Gottfried-Keller-Plätzli" in Burghalden and the lakeside path offer beautiful views of the islands of Ufenau, Lützelau and Schönenwirt, and of the foothills of the Glarus and Appenzell Alps.
