Parking Hochschulen, Zurich

Parking in Hochschulen, Zürich, means choosing between metered central streets, campus spaces with access restrictions and public garages. Mobypark lets you compare and pre-book an available private parking option in the wider area before setting off.

Book private parking around Hochschulen

Mobypark offers bookable private parking spots that owners do not actively use, including hotel and office spaces, private driveways and unused garages. Compare the location, access arrangements and dates before booking; available options can offer better value than central public garages.

Street parking rates and limits in Hochschulen

Where a street bay is in Zürich’s high-tariff central zone, charges apply Monday to Saturday, 09:00–20:00. The first 30 minutes cost CHF 1, one hour costs CHF 3 and two hours cost CHF 7.50; each additional hour costs CHF 2. Most central meters limit parking to two hours, so check the bay sign before leaving your car. For a longer paid stay, pre-booked Mobypark parking may be more practical than planning around a meter limit.

High-tariff bays are free outside their charging hours, including Sundays and public holidays, but other signs and restrictions still apply. Kreis 1 (8001) has no Blue Zone spaces.

ETH and UZH campus parking in Hochschulen

Many ETH Zentrum garages are mainly for people with an ETH parking permit, so do not assume they are open to visitors. The ETH Main Building (HG) garage on Karl-Schmid-Strasse/Rämistrasse is open to the public on weekdays from 16:00 to 07:00 and all day at weekends and on public holidays. Its listed tariff is CHF 4 per hour from 07:00 to 17:00 and CHF 2 per hour from 17:00 to 06:00. Check the entrance signs for access and payment details. If those public hours do not suit your visit, Mobypark lets you compare bookable private parking spots before you travel.

UZH campus parking, including access roads to its sites, is paid and requires authorisation. Visitors should check access conditions rather than treating campus spaces as public parking.

Full-day and overnight parking in Hochschulen

Street bays with a two-hour maximum are a poor fit for a full-day stay, even when the meter is not charging overnight. For a longer visit, compare public garage costs and access hours with pre-booked Mobypark parking; check the booked space’s entry and exit arrangements to make sure they suit your stay.

Parking rules and penalties in Hochschulen

Follow the signs at each bay or garage entrance, and display or activate the required parking ticket or disc correctly. Exceeding the permitted time or failing to start the parking meter can incur a CHF 40 fine. Parking in a no-parking area for up to 60 minutes can incur a CHF 120 fine.
