Observation tower on Mogielica, Observation tower atop Mogielica Mountain, Poland
The steel observation tower rises above Mogielica mountain at 1170 meters elevation, providing views of the Tatra Mountains and Gorce range.
During World War II, the slopes of Mogielica mountain served as a location for partisan camps, with supplies being dropped to support resistance operations.
The summit area integrates into the Crown of Polish Mountains program, which encourages hikers to reach and document visits to significant peaks across Poland.
Visitors can access the tower through multiple marked trails, with the yellow route from Chyszówki-Słopnice road extending 6 kilometers and requiring 3 hours of hiking.
From the observation deck, visitors can spot the buildings of Krakow to the north and the peaks of four different mountain ranges in other directions.
