Wettingen - the village between the Lägern and Limmat rivers lies between the centers of Baden and Zurich. It offers residents and travelers passing through just a few minutes' drive from the town center to local recreational areas on the banks of the Limmat or at the foot of the Lägern, the last foothills of the Jura.

On a clear day, you can enjoy a magical view from the vineyard from the Glarus to the Bernese Alps.

The former Cistercian monastery on the banks of the Limmat is famous beyond Wettingen's borders.

Wettingen has very good transport links. The municipality is optimally served by two S-Bahn lines to Zurich and a well-developed bus network provides local transportation. Two highway connections on the A1 ensure fast connections for private transport in the direction of Bern and eastern Switzerland.
