Lookout tower on "Čarná hura", Krásna Luka, Slovakia

Lookout tower on the Black Hill - "Čarnej hure"

On the top (1 180 m above sea level), just above the village of Krásna Lúka, there is a lookout tower, which was built by local volunteers in 2012. It offers a view of the entire Upper Šariš region (Branisko, Bachureň, Stráže, Čergov) and part of the Spiš region (Pieniny). A high cross is erected near the lookout tower. You can also relax and pray at the statue of Our Lady of Medjugorje. The place is one of the popular recreational and spiritual trips and hikes for families with children, schools, individual walks and parish events. On the top there is a stove where you can barbecue. Once a year, a pilgrimage is held here with a holy mass on the occasion of the feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
