Ueberlandpark: A green oasis on the motorway

How a motorway became an urban nature reserve. Guided tour of the Ueberlandpark in Schwamendingen.

Ueberlandpark, almost a kilometre long, connects Zürichberg and Glatttal. It creates valuable habitat, promotes biodiversity and is a new meeting place.

The motorway running beneath the surface is almost forgotten, as the new park is flourishing. A new neighbourhood and a valuable natural space are springing up on top of the motorway’s enclosure. Whether wild bees, butterflies or goldfinches – numerous animal species bring the wall gardens and green spaces to life.

On the guided tour of the Ueberlandpark, you’ll gain an insight into the park’s history and its ecologically valuable habitats. This blossoming oasis in the city not only benefits the environment but also enhances the quality of life for us humans.
