Harrachov is not only about mountains, wellness and a pleasant atmosphere, but also a great starting point for trips in the surrounding area. If you love scenic views, quiet forest paths and places where you can truly unwind from everyday hustle and bustle, we have some inspiration for you. We have selected five lookout towers that are well worth adding to your programme during your stay in Harrachov.

1. Štěpánka – a classic that never disappoints

The Štěpánka lookout tower is one of the most iconic destinations near Harrachov. It stands above Příchovice and offers beautiful views of the western Krkonoše Mountains and the Jizera Mountains. Thanks to its proximity to Harrachov, it is a great tip for a relaxed half-day trip.

2. Jára Cimrman Lighthouse – an original tower with character

Just a short distance from Štěpánka, you will find a lookout tower that catches the eye at first glance. Its unusual design, scenic views and slightly playful atmosphere make it a place appreciated by couples, families and anyone looking for an interesting trip and a photogenic destination.

3. Černá Studnice – views and an easy family-friendly trip

If you want to combine a lookout tower with comfortable facilities, Černá Studnice is an excellent choice. It is ideal for families with children as well as for those who want a pleasant outing without an unnecessarily demanding climb.

4. Královka – the famous Jizera Mountains tower with a wow effect

Královka is one of the best-known lookout towers in the Jizera Mountains and definitely deserves a place in your weekend itinerary. It is exactly the type of trip that feels elegant, airy and truly special.

5. Bramberk – a lesser-known tip with a beautiful atmosphere

Bramberk is a great choice for those who want to discover a lookout tower with a calmer atmosphere and a pleasant mountain character. Ideal for an active afternoon and also a great tip for guests who want to explore the surroundings of Harrachov in a slightly different way.
