Loorenkopf tower, Wooden observation tower on Adlisberg, Switzerland
The Loorenkopf tower reaches a height of 33 meters with a wooden lattice structure that rises above the dense forest of eastern Zürich.
The municipal authorities of Zürich constructed this observation tower in 1954 as part of their initiative to develop recreational facilities in the Adlisberg area.
The tower functions as a central gathering point for local residents and visitors who come to observe the natural landscapes of Zürcher Oberland region.
Visitors can climb 153 steps to access the upper platform, which remains open throughout the year without admission fees or time restrictions.
From the observation deck at 694 meters elevation, observers can see the peaks of Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains during clear weather conditions.
