Limmat River Cruise

Past the historical guild houses, Zurich’s Town Hall, the Lindenhof and the Grossmünster church: a Limmat River Cruise takes you from the National Museum up the River Limmat to Lake Zurich and back again. Since April 2023, the electric boats, “Fluvius”, “Navalis”, and “Pontus”, have been operating on this route. The e-Limmat boats not only feature electric propulsion for the first time, but also offer a higher passenger capacity, are air-conditioned, and are partially wheelchair accessible (up to a maximum of 80 cm; boarding and disembarking only possible at the National Museum station). The glass roof allows passengers in all seats to enjoy the view of the picturesque old town and Lake Zurich.

The Limmat River Cruises operate between April and October. The stretch between the National Museum and the Zürichhorn takes approximately 25 minutes, while the entire round trip lasts around 50 minutes.
