Uetliberg

The best view from the Top of Zurich. Easy to reach by tram from the central station Zurich HB. The view very beautiful as in daylight and in the night. The most time i prefer in December full with lighting cozy place to visit.

Great for a day trip! Leave approx. 2-3 hrs round trip, worth paying 2CHF for the trip to the top of Zurich tower. View is amazing and brisk breeze fantastic.

Phenomenal views of Zurich and a scenic train ride up. Know that the walk from the train station to the peak can get quite icy.

Beautiful, just so beautiful. My visit was more in the warmer season hence the lush greenery you see before you. I suppose, during the more colder months, this majestic view would be covered in a thick blanket of snow. Either way, it's a win-win because, just look at it.

It was really not much. You need to climb a KM max to the uetliberg. I came in December ending. Very much covered in fog but you’ll still love it. The place is very slippery. There also another trek you can go which is about 2 hours. Worth the visit.

Beautiful views from the top, and when you get there you feel really accomplished. I do think it could be marked a bit better/clearly for where you are supposed to go if climbing the mountain. I see some other reviews here with a full staircase, and I never saw that. For me it was paths/trails, and eventually steps but they were very narrow and mostly didn't have railings. There was also mention of an entrance fee - No one stopped me and asked me for money. So maybe I went the wrong way? Regardless, great experience, beautiful place. I found it difficult but it was my first time climbing a mountain and I went rogue. For someone more experienced and/or who finds a better route, probably moderate difficulty. It's not a huge mountain but some parts are steep. You can take the train too. I took the train down after. I went in August and bugs weren't as bad as I expected. There's a restaurant at the top too.

Stunning view from the top of Zurich. Very convenient to visit from the city. Free to visit.

Amazing place. Hiking there will be a lot of fun but remember that it's a difficult hike. Amazing 360 degree views. Cost to go there: 0. Cost to go on the tower: 2 CHF.
