Libín, Observation tower at Libín mountain near Prachatice, Czech Republic

The Libín tower rises 27 meters into the sky, offering views of Prachatice, Písek, Helfenburg, and the distant Alps from its observation platform.

The tower functions as a central gathering point for local outdoor enthusiasts who participate in regional hiking events throughout the seasons.

Visitors can reach the tower through a two-kilometer blue-marked trail from Sedlýcko parking lot or via a 4.8-kilometer red-marked path.

From the observation deck at 1096 meters above sea level, guests can view multiple landmarks including Boubín, Javorník, and Temelín nuclear power plant.
