Promotion of health, development of family and nature experiences, strengthening of mass sports – the concept of the Zurich Vitaparcours remains valid. Sports enthusiasts complete fifteen stations on a course laid out through the forest, each with a choice from a total of 43 exercises:
- yellow indicates exercises for mobility and dexterity,
- red for strength, and
- blue for endurance
Each parcours is measured according to length, elevation, and performance kilometers. The final board provides information on calorie consumption and endurance capacity. Moreover, the parcours also become a very personal experience. Because here people chat, laugh, and sometimes even flirt. The parcours are located in the most beautiful stadium in the world – in nature. Everyone can go there for free, whenever they want, alone or in company.
