## Description

Together with specialist partners, health insurance provider Helsana is creating a dense network of Helsana Trails. There are now over 360 signposted running routes in over 120 locations all across Switzerland, providing sports enthusiasts with an easy way to work out every day in the fresh air.

Helsana Trails are signposted circuits that wind through unspoilt landscapes over long distances. There are routes of different distances to ensure that both beginners and ambitious runners get the full benefit.
Along the way, runners will find information boards with tips on how to get the maximum health benefits from their walking or running. The exercise information signs can generally be found on the shortest trail routes, and are also included on the start sign for the trail. All routes are equipped with distance markers and signposts.
