Hiking
The viewing terrace in front of the ETH main building, called the "Polyterrasse," can be reached from Central station in just 2.5 minutes via the Polybahn funicular.
Visitors come here to enjoy the magnificent view over the old town; on clear days, the view extends as far as the Alps.
The ETH cafeteria is located below the terrace.

From this terrace you have a wonderful view of the old town of Zurich and even the Alps.
