Boards can be folded down on the platform of the tower. There you can lie down with your upper body to be able to watch the stars more comfortably in the dark.

During the day you have an excellent view over the Southern Lauwersmeer. At night you have a beautiful view of the night sky here (one of the 8 darkest points in the world).
