Hot Springs Mountain Tower, Observation tower in Hot Springs National Park, Arkansas.
The steel lattice structure rises 216 feet into the sky, providing panoramic views extending up to 140 miles across the Ouachita Mountains and Diamond Lakes region.
The current tower, opened in 1983, represents the third observation point on this site, following an 1877 wooden tower and the 1906 Rix Tower from Louisiana Purchase Exposition.
The tower serves as a central gathering point for visitors exploring Hot Springs National Park, offering educational exhibits about local history on its enclosed lower deck.
The facility maintains different seasonal schedules, operating from 9 AM to 8 PM during summer months and closing at 5 PM from November through February.
Located at 1,256 feet above sea level, the tower features both an open-air upper deck and an air-conditioned lower observation level with historical displays.
