    Hope you made it!

    I find it depressing that most LIndt chocolate is now made not in Switzerland but 1200km away in the French Pyrenees

    Hi Link,

    Hope you found your way to the Lindt Chocolate Factory safely.

    But here’s how to get there just in case.

    1. By train from Zurich HB: Take the train to Kilchberg station and walk to the Lindt Chocolate Factory (about 900m).
    2. By tram and bus from Zurich HB: Take the tram to Burkliplatz (near the lake), then take Bus 165 from Burkliplatz bus stop to Lindt & Sprungli, Kilchberg.
    3. By tram and boat: Take the tram to Burkliplatz, walk to the boat terminal and take the boat to Kilchberg, then walk to the Lindt Chocolate Factory.

    You can use the SBB timetable to check public transport schedules and pick the right connection.

    Regards,

    Anna

    We found our way to the Lindt factory and really enjoyed the history as well as the chocolate.

    Afterwards we took the train to St. Gallen and just loved exploring the town.

    Tomorrow it’s off to Zermatt!

    A special thank you to all of the my swiss alps group. You taught me so much. We have just loved our stay.
