In front on the lower right is the centre for correctional measures, in the background the Uetliberg and the lake of Zurich. thumb|Uitikon during winter time Uitikon lies on the northern end of the Albis hills that include the Uetliberg mountain and form the western boundary of the city of Zürich. The Uetliberg itself lies some to the south-east, but its north-western flanks lie within the municipal boundary. The municipality is some west of, and higher than, Zürich city centre, and straddles the main road west from Zürich to Birmensdorf. The village of Uitikon lies to the north of the road, whilst Waldegg and Ringlikon lie to the south.
