What this layer shows

The bathing sites whose water quality Switzerland reports to the European Environment Agency, with the classification of the last season reported. The classification rests on the microbiological assessment of several years and says nothing about conditions on a given day; current readings are published by the cantonal laboratories.

Schutzgebiete

The protected areas the map opens with, free, across Switzerland: Emerald and Ramsar sites, the BLN, the Swiss National Park and the parks of national importance, biosphere reserves and UNESCO natural sites, the waterbird and migratory bird reserves, bathing waters and SwitzerlandMobility's hiking routes.

Water and natural hazards

Groundwater protection zones S1 to S3, Sh and Sm, protection areas, water protection areas Au and Ao and inflow areas, river space, then the hazard and hazard indication maps, the natural event register and seismic subsoil classes: with bathing waters and the ecomorphological state of the rivers.

Out and about

Hiking, cycling and mountain biking with SwitzerlandMobility, and what to watch for on the way: wildlife rest zones and hunting-ban areas, pastures with livestock guardian dogs, firing danger zones and drone restrictions: with the parks, bird reserves and bathing waters.
