Zürich

🏊"welcome respite from the heat" — locals have swum here for generations
💧Water's "clear and cool as the mountain water"

Paddle the Schanzengraben canal from the train station toward Lake Zurich, gliding past leafy promenades where locals linger with books and newspapers. The water's mountain-fresh coolness makes for perfect summer wading when you're done paddling.
