As winter's grip loosens, Zurich erupts in a cascade of color each April. In 2025, the city's cherry blossoms are predicted to peak around April 12, transforming the lakeshore into a pink-hued wonderland straight out of a Monet painting.

- First Swim of the Year: Locals take their first daring dips at Tiefenbrunnen's lakeside baths (water temp: a bracing 12°C/54°F).
