Wildpark Langenberg

A lovely leisurely walk from my aunt's house lead us to the Wildpark Langenberg. We did not go into the Park. We just stayed at the outside and looked at the Alpine Ibex and Red Deer.

With the unusually warm temperatures for October (the whole month was 5°C above normal), we enjoyed our walk in short sleeves. There were still berries on the bushes and the strawberries were flowering again and there were some ripe berries also.

There text on the Memorial read:

In memory of the occupation of the Albis pass by French troops and the combat between Russian and French soldiers on the occasion of the second battle for Zurich in 1798-1799.

Zur Erinnerung an die Besetzung des Albis Passes durch FranzösischeTruppen und das Gefecht zwischen Russischen und Französischen Soldatenanlässlich der zweiten Schlacht um Zurich anno 1798-1799.
