Kraví hora, Observation tower in Novohradské hory mountains, Czech Republic
Kraví hora is a steel tower rising 37 meters high in the Novohradské hory mountains, topped with an observation deck. From above, visitors can look out across multiple directions and see fields, forests, and the mountain ranges surrounding the region.
The tower was built in 2001 as part of efforts to develop recreational infrastructure in the Novohradské hory mountains. Since then it has served visitors seeking to explore the region from this vantage point.
The tower serves as a gathering point for hikers crossing the Novohradské hory mountains who pause to take in the views. The area has long been a destination for people seeking to explore the landscape and connect with nature in South Bohemia.
The tower is reached via a marked trail from the parking area at the swimming pool in Horní Stropnice, making it easy to find the path. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear to walk safely on the terrain.
On clear days, visitors can see as far as 80 kilometers from the top, reaching views that extend well beyond the immediate surroundings. This far-reaching visibility is what many people find most memorable about the location.
