Stay fit

We're a strong region

A feeling of fun and a feeling of accomplishment: whether an outdoor adventure, combat sports, swinging above the trees or holding your breath underwater. Schaffhausen's wide palette of exercise opportunities not only strengthens the movers and shakers among us, but also the entire region.

Where the elite play

The Kadetten dominate Swiss handball, VC Kanti stands for top-level volleyball, and FC Schaffhausen fights for a top spot in the first league. Table tennis fans can get involved in TTC Neuhausen, and young talent in the Suisse Handball Academy and track and field club LC Schaffhausen.

Like to Hike?

Whether a relaxing walk or an ambitious trek, it's always worth taking a hike. Schaffhausen brings you everything: steep or flat, narrow or wide, shady or panoramic, through gorges, forests, and past historical houses, with views of Lake Constance, volcanic mountains, or the Alps. Put on your backpack, pack your water and a snack, and off you go!

Into the water

From your desk straight into the right: stand-up paddling at sunset, floating with the current, or swimming at one of the many pools and public bathing areas. If you'd rather stay dry, hop in a canoe or a boat - the main thing is to stay cool and drift along.

Flying high

If you like to soar, give it a try with a glider, balloon, or paragliding.

On Tuesday evenings, my running group meets on the Munot fields - running faster or slower, chatting, laughing. It's not just about fitness, but also a change to hang out and talk. And afterwards, I feel ready for the rest of my week.
