Uetliberg Aussichtsturm, Observation tower on Mount Uetliberg, Switzerland

The steel lattice tower rises 72 meters above Mount Uetliberg, featuring an observation platform at 30 meters accessed by 178 stairs.

The current tower, built in 1990, replaced the original 1894 structure that drew inspiration from the Eiffel Tower's design principles.

The tower represents the connection between Zurich residents and their local mountain, serving as a central point for outdoor recreation activities.

Visitors can reach the tower via public transportation from Zurich's main station, with the S10 train running directly to Uetliberg station.

The observation platform provides views of Lake Zurich, the city, and the Alps, rising above the November fog that often covers the urban area.
