Kelčský Javorník, Mountain summit in Hostýnské vrchy, Czech Republic

Kelčský Javorník is the highest summit of the Hostýnské vrchy, reaching 864 metres in the Hostýnsko-vsetínská hornatina. A 35-metre lookout tower of twelve curved larch lamellae around a steel column stands on top, its 156 steps leading to a platform at 30 metres. The northern slope holds a nature reserve of mixed forest close to old-growth.

A wooden lookout tower built by the Club of Czech Tourists and Junák once stood on the summit, but it was later demolished for safety reasons. In 2012 the Podhostýnský Mikroregion association held an architectural competition for a new tower, won by the design of Ondřej Balážik, Marta Balážiková and Pavel Petrů. Construction began in September 2014 and the tower opened on 15 September 2015.

The name Javorník refers to the maples (javor) of these woods, while Kelčský links the peak to the town of Kelč below. The lookout tower's twelve curved larch lamellae form a clock face, a nod to the bentwood furniture made in nearby Bystřice pod Hostýnem. A monument near the summit recalls five men killed in a 1961 air-taxi crash.

Marked trails reach the summit from Loukov and Chvalčov via the Jehelník memorial on the green Cyril and Methodius route, from Podhradní Lhota and Rajnochovice via Černá bařina, and from Tesák via Čerňava. The tower's upper platform at 30 metres is reached by 156 steps.

The lookout tower on the summit is a purely observation structure: twelve curved larch lamellae arranged in a circle around a steel column, echoing the bentwood furniture tradition of nearby Bystřice pod Hostýnem. Its plan resembles a clock face, and the twelve platforms recall a sundial.
