Once the elevator has brought you to the viewing area, walk full circle and see the area of Stuttgart and surrounding areas. The view can be magnificent,so be sure to pick a clear day to enjoy an outing to the Fernsehturm. More

Well worth visiting when clear and so well located in lovely woodlands where there are many paths for cool walks. The admission price is reasonable for this experience and the cafe in the clouds offers amazing views whilst taking refreshments. More

I went up in the Stuttgart tower on a whim. I was in the area and was looking for something to do. All I can say was, WOW. Absolutely amazing view. My father who was with me, was rather skeptical at first, but once we went up into the elevator, we were both awed. Well worth it. More

Nice quick tour for the family. Costs was 16 euros for a family of 4. You can do the entire tour in less than an hour. Visibility was great, and we toured during light rain. You felt secure with the 4 feet of safety bars around you. Nice cafe located at the top and restaurant located on the bottom floor. More

Not for me! I didn't bother to get close to the Fernsehturm, for my money when you have seen one you have seen them all. This one does occupy the skyline and unless you want to rise to a height then its easy to give it a miss. More

I was in Stuffgart on the weekend of a transit strike. That doesn't dissuade me as I prefer to walk wherever I can. We chose to walk from city centre to the TV tower - despite the unfounded warnings from the locals. I guess their concern was that the trek is mostly uphill, and the path swerves around residential neighborhoods,... More

Or so it seems. The TV Tower in Degerloch up on the ridge overlooking the city of Stuttgart in a must see simply for the 360 degree view of the lay of the Schwabian landscape. Grab a bockwurst mit brotchen und senf, take your place in the observation tower and observe the world of Baden-Wuettemberg at your feet. More

Obvious comment but to get the most out of the tower it needs to be a clear day. There is not much else around the tower, some woods if you fancy a little walk but really just the tower itself. There is parking available, we didnt have a problem but it didnt look to be a very large car park... More

Nice view, however there isn't much more than a pretzel and a cup of coffee at the top. Nice for a quick trip up and down the elevator. More
