style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">We know <\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Bad Zurzach<\/span><\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> mainly from its thermal baths. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">But would you have thought that there is a nature paradise hiding here?<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The rare sand martins are just in the mating season and fly to their refuge. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">A swan proudly shows off its white robe. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">And the mallard is eagerly looking for food.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">But the contrast is great. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">On the other side, intensive agriculture is practiced. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Further back you can see the tower of the Bad Zurzach spa. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Houses line up there, one after the other.<\/span><\/span><\/p><h2><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Start of the &#8220;Nature Paradise Hike&#8221; near Bad Zurzach<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Our hike starts in the village next to Bad Zurzach called Rietheim. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Rietheim is easily accessible by train and bus from Bad Zurzach or Koblenz. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">But even those who want to travel by car will find parking spaces in Rietheim.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">For example, there is a car park directly at the nature reserve car park (1CHF \/ h and payable in coins only). <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Now there are two variants. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">One is a short walk in the nature reserve along the paths, which is also perfect for families as an excursion near Zurich.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">We do the longer hike, which takes about 1.5h. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">First you walk from the village of Rietheim to the nature reserve. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">On the way you will see a canalised stream. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Since the whole creek is made out of cement, only very few animals can survive in this artificial stream. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">But the beaver is back and automatically turns the area into a nature paradise. <\/span><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">He cuts down trees and dams up the water to create more habitat.<\/span><\/span><\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-3048\"
