A very nice tour is from Zurich to the Uetliberg and then along the planet path here. Then take the cable car down and from Adliswil take the boat back to Zurich.

Up Felsenegg (804m) with the little train. From time to time the sun came through the clouds. Dry hike on a rainy day with a nice finish with pizza, wine and ice cream.
