Description

The main fault systems in the Zürcher Weinland are the Neuhausen fault and the Wildensbucher flexure. Based on the present knowledge, no significant neo-tectonic activity is expected in the Zürcher Weinland within the next one million years, but a minor reactivation of the Neuhausen fault cannot be ruled out completely.
