The station is adjacent to the Triemli Hospital, one of Zürich's main hospitals, and there is direct access from the station platform to the hospital site. A level crossing carries Hohensteinweg across the line immediately to the west of the station. The station is some 400 metres (1,300 ft) on foot from the Triemli terminus of routes 9 and 14 of the Zürich tram system, which lies at a lower level on the other side of the hospital site.
