Uetliberg Design Networking Hike

A creative walk & talk for designers and creatives

Join us for a half-day walk and talk along the scenic Uetliberg ridge, designed to connect outside the usual networking format.

No presentations. No panels. Just great people, ideas, and a shared path.

We start at Triemli Station and hike up through the forest to Uto Staffel (about 1.5 hours), guided by Mario Stipetic. From there, we continue into a relaxed 1 to 1.5 hour ridge walk along the Planetenweg with views over Zürich, the lake, and the Alps.

Conversations unfold naturally along the way. We move in small groups, rotate, and share thoughts on current projects, creative challenges, and topics like AI in design, or whatever emerges in the moment.

We end at Gut Mädikon Hofcafé, a hidden farm café, where we spend about one hour enjoying coffee, homemade cake, and relaxed conversation.

This is networking without the pressure. Just movement, fresh air, and meaningful exchange.

See you there! 😇

The Easy Route
Prefer to skip the steep climb? Take the S10 train from Zürich HB to Uetliberg (about 20 minutes), then walk down to Uto Staffel and meet us there around 11:00 AM. Timing will be coordinated via the group on the day.

Getting Back
We walk back along the ridge to Uetliberg, either retracing the Planetenweg or taking the path near the Uetliberg tower. From there, walk down to Triemli station and catch the train home.

Physical Fitness
The initial climb takes about 1.5 hours and is steep, requiring a reasonable level of fitness. If you are unsure, take the easy route. The views are the same, and the Hofcafé cake tastes just as good.

RSVP
If your plans change and you can no longer attend, please update your RSVP so we can adjust the reservation at the Hofcafé.
