A great and tall observation tower allowing you to enjoy the magnificent views over Czarna Hańcza, including the Głazowisko Reserve on the other side of the river. So stretch your legs and climb up.

Being in the Suwałki Region and not seeing Lake Hańcza or Czarna Hańcza shouldn't be legal :D We stopped at a parking lot near Turtul on the Green Velo route.
