About

The Hot Springs Observation Tower, a 216-foot tall structure, opened to the public in 1983, and is actually the third observation tower in that location. Not only are the views of Hot Springs and the Zig-Zag mountains incredible from the top of the tower, but this is also an excellent place to learn a lot of fun facts and trivia about Hot Springs! Y'see, there are actually two levels at the tower's peak. The lower level is fully enclosed, and there are signs and displays all about the city's fascinating history. From there, you can move up a level for some outdoor, and depending on the weather, some very windy views of the surrounding area. There's a small per-person fee to ride the elevator to the top. And the ground floor has a decent little gift shop if you wanna do some souvenir shopping.
