Furttal
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Furttal is the name of a valley region in Switzerland between Laegern and Altberg in the Dielsdorf district of the canton of Zurich.
The area's name stems from the German word for ford, or furt, and is named after the crossing over the Limmat river in the community of Würenlos on the west side of the region. The area is bordered in the east near the community of Regensdorf by the Katzensee lakes.
