These concrete steps climb the southern slope of the Pyynikki ridge in Tampere up to the Pyynikki observation tower, and locally they are also known as Tahdon portaat. People have used them for fitness training for decades, and they are the first stop on one of the city's culture trails.
The climb is suitable for children, and from the top you can carry on to the observation tower. The City of Tampere website describes the other stops on the trail in Finnish and English.
