Hallenbad Allmend Meilen

swimming pool · Indoor

Meilen’s reliable all-weather swim option belongs at the top of a local search: a 25 m indoor pool, teaching water, sauna, bistro and accessible pool lift above the lake village. It solves the rainy-day or winter swim instead of pretending every good swim needs an outdoor badi.

Address
Toggwilerstrasse 38, 8706 Meilen
Entry
CHF 8 (child 4)
Opening
Mon-Fri 06:00-21:00; Sat-Sun 08:00-19:00. Holiday and event exceptions are published by Gemeinde Meilen.

Strandbad Dorfmeilen

lake bath · Outdoor

Dorfmeilen is the proper village lake bath: lawn, rafts, warm food, playground and a direct right-bank Zürichsee feeling. It is the obvious local choice for a real summer badi day in Meilen rather than an anonymous shoreline stop.

Address
Seestrasse 720, 8706 Meilen
Opening
Pre/post-season 2026: Mon 11:00-19:00, Tue-Sun 10:00-19:00. Main season 2026: Mon 11:00-20:00, Tue-Sun 09:00-20:00, weather permitting.

Strandbad Feldmeilen

lake bath · Outdoor

Feldmeilen is the sportier Meilen lakeside option: a diving tower, a marked non-swimmer area and the same municipal season logic. It is a very different place from Ländeli and should not be merged with it.

Address
Seestrasse 236, 8706 Meilen
Opening
Pre/post-season 2026: Mon 11:00-19:00, Tue-Sun 10:00-19:00. Main season 2026: Mon 11:00-20:00, Tue-Sun 09:00-20:00, weather permitting.

Badeanlage Ländeli

lake bath · Outdoor

Ländeli is a simple Obermeilen/Dollikon lakeside bathing area, not Steinrad and not a city badi. It is best for a short local dip, with free access and a clear operator warning that swimming and use are at your own risk.

Address
Seestrasse 950, 8706 Meilen
Entry
Free
Opening
Freely accessible; changing rooms and WC open during the municipal bathing season in good weather.
Season

Badeanlage Steinrad

lake bath · Outdoor

Steinrad is Herrliberg’s lake bathing area north-west of Meilen. It must stay separate from Ländeli: different municipality, different coordinates, different access expectations and a much more local Herrliberg character.

Address
Seestrasse / Steinradstrasse, 8704 Herrliberg
Opening
Herrliberg summer facility; municipal page and operator notices apply.
Season
Summer lake-bath season; resident/access rules must be checked before travel.

Strandbad Uetikon am See

Uetikon extends the right-bank search east of Meilen and is useful when Meilen’s closest lake baths are busy or you are already moving toward Männedorf and Stäfa.

Strandbad Männedorf

lake bath · Outdoor

Männedorf stretches the search south along the same shore. It is a sensible alternative when Meilen options are full or when you want a quieter village-lake atmosphere with rail access.

Strandbad Küsnacht
