Maják, Observation tower in Přítluky, Czech Republic.
Maják is an observation tower in Přítluky that rises 26.5 meters and offers views from its summit across the Nové Mlýny reservoirs and the surrounding South Moravian landscape. The structure is a slender modern tower with an accessible staircase leading to a viewing platform.
The tower was built in modern times as part of a regional wave of observation structures that outfitted South Moravia with new vantage points. This expansion made the landscape more accessible to hikers and visitors.
The tower sits within South Moravia's wine country, where vineyards shape the surrounding landscape and travelers encounter working wine estates along the hiking routes.
The best approach is via marked hiking trails from Přítluky village, where parking is available near the tower's base. The climb is straightforward and the viewing platform is easily reached by most visitors.
From the tower's summit, visitors can spot the exact point where three distinct geographical regions of Moravia meet and their boundaries become visible. This vantage point reveals the landscape's natural variety in a way that ground-level views cannot.
