Hi welcome back to Swiss Family Fund today we are on a bike ride on the Lila River going north of Zurich we’re gonna try and go all the way to bottom we’ll see if we make it it took us a while to get here through the city because you

Have to go on a few city roads etc but I have figured out the best way for families that is in bike routes and on low traffic roads that makes a lot easier with smaller kids so I’m gonna put that in the bike map that I put on

The website and once you get to the river you’re on this great dirt path as you can see here and it goes for lots of kilometres all the way up to Baden and we’re gonna try out a bunch of our new equipment so you can see I’ve got a

GoPro I’m a helmet I don’t know how to use it see if I get any usable footage I’ll put a link in the description below to our website that has all the details which I will write up as soon as we get back all right let’s go get on the ride So far we’ve made it to the very insole which is a really nice place for a picnic and swimming in the summer and this is about as far as we’ve ever been so now it is mystery territory and I hope that we can make it all the way the

Bottom then we’re gonna take the train back to Zurich you don’t have to worry about any traffic and lots of places to stop and have a picnic which is what we’re doing right now we’re having a little snack Lee and then we’re gonna get back on the road so just press the

Word feared insult is this little theme trail it goes through this little bog forest here All right I’m gonna show you the right way to go this we came across two maps one showed us to go she said that the bike path was on the outside of the river and the other one showed that the bike path was on this side of the river

We didn’t know where to go so now we’re on the East Asian River and there’s all these signs saying that sign means we had no bikes and then we just got told off by an older couple that told us no bikes and we’ve just seen ten bikes come

By us they didn’t get yelled at but we did next time we’re gonna go on the other side of the river and then see if anyone yells at us on that side all right we were on the wrong side of the river we were rightly scolded and now we’ve made amends

Is tired and I’m not gonna finish the red today wait where you die We have finished our bike ride for the day we did not make it all the way to bottom but I’m not disappointed we had a great ride we are stopping in Brighton bath and we have been riding our bikes well out on the trail for a good four

Hours maybe longer just taking our time and maybe we’ll take the train out here too right and back and go the rest of the way to bottom we’ve got six point two kilometers left about him so with kids probably a small catch present make it the whole way but that’s the path is

So great so wherever you stop it’s mine let’s see here in Brighton pretty easy to catch the train except for there are a bunch of stairs going up to the track which was annoying there was no ramp so I had to carry bikes up annoying this trip we have had two

Crashes plus one almost crash we have had two wrong turns and one scolding we had three lizard spottings we had one dead battery and one forgotten cables so we couldn’t charge that dead battery and a lot of mistakes but also a lot of fun so I would definitely do it again thanks

For watching it I hope you liked it if you want the details for this ride I’ll put a link in the description below to our website and we’ll see you here soon back on our channel for more family-friendly activities in Switzerland
