Beyond the views of the border

on foot

An unpretentious trip, suitable for the whole family, will take you to the Queen of the Jizera Mountains — the Stepanec Lookout Tower.

About the trip

On the route you will get acquainted with the history of the light fortifications of the Czechoslovak Army in the exhibition Na Pomezí. But the steps will also lead you to the views - both to the stone observation tower of Štěpánek and to the modern observation tower Maják Járy Cimrman. At this observation tower, not only fans of Jára Cimrman, in his local museum, but also small children will enjoy it - there is a leisure area nearby. Children can enjoy themselves in the Na Slunní forest park with various attractions, while parents can have a snack in the local restaurant or cafe.
