Üetliberg, Mountain summit in Zürich, Switzerland.

The 869-meter-high mountain rises above the city, offering panoramic views of Zürich, the lake, and the distant Alps on clear days.

The mountain's name originates from a medieval castle near the summit, first documented in historical records from 1210.

The Uetliberg railway brings passengers from Zürich main station to the summit, following a tradition of mountain railways in Switzerland.

Visitors can reach the mountain through multiple hiking paths from Albisgüetli, Triemli, and Albisrieden, with water fountains placed along the routes.

The Planet Trail connects Uetliberg to Felsenegg, presenting a scale model of the solar system along a two-hour walking path.
