Advance Information - Summer 2020 |
The ZSG have completely re-cast their sailings for 2020, with sailing speeds slightly reduced The main change is there will no longer be any "through" sailings from Zurich to the Upper Lake - these are replaced by a limited 'weekend only' 1120 sailings 301-302 from Rapperswil to Schmerikon operated by a smaller motor vessel which breaks "tradition" by being based at that end of the lake ----- at least these are shown to connect off the new 0915 sailing from Zurich which is planned for a paddle steamer on several dates Paddle steamer timetabled sailings are restricted to operate between Zurich and Rapperswil with one of them rostered at weekends only in April and October, but daily throughout the rest of the summer either - normally operating just one round trip or occasionally two on some busy days Perhaps the best news for 2020 is both paddle steamer are advertised to be in service together on July and August Sundays - something which has not happened for many years The annual ZSG "Excursion Leaflet" confirms the timetabled sailings planned for the paddle steamers with the usual "subject to"....... clause but unlike previous years - no details of any "special" sailings are included |
