What you need to know
- Afternoons are for families, since daycares, kindergartens and schools are asked to come in the morning
- Weekends get very busy, so the organizers suggest planning a weekday visit too
- A forest walk first: the hut sits in the woods, so dress for a December forest and wear sturdy shoes
About
Samichlaus is Zurich's St. Nicholas, and each Advent he and his helper Schmutzli move into a little hut in the Käferberg forest. Families follow a signposted path through the woods to find them. The pair chat with the kids and show them their Stube (living room) and bedroom. It suits young kids who still believe in Samichlaus, and families who would rather visit him in the woods than at home.
