Tössegg is a restaurant and tourism office located where the Töss River meets the Rhine in Freienstein-Teufen. The establishment offers a terrace overlooking the Rhine and caters to hikers, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts visiting north Zurich Canton.

The location is easily accessible and offers ample parking for visitors. It serves well as a rest stop during hikes or cycling trips along the rivers.
