Above\u00a0the town of Sabinov<\/a>\u00a0Chance is off. It is the name for a part of the wooded hill right next to the Torysa river. \u0160anec is mainly used for recreation and because of its proximity to the town (entrance directly from the main road) it is a popular place in every season. The foot of the hill can be reached by all kinds of paths, the routes are known as\u00a0\u201e\u0160vablovsk\u00e9 chodni\u010dky\u201c<\/a>. On the top there is a plain, where in September 2020 the \u201eLookout tower on the Chance\u201c was inaugurated. The construction of the lookout tower was realized thanks to the financial support of the Government Office of the Slovak Republic, as a means to promote tourism and increase the attractiveness of the suburban\u00a0forest park \u0160vab\u013eovka.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lookout tower can be found at an altitude of 465 m above sea level and is located at the maximum height at which construction was possible due to the nearby Ra\u017e\u0148any airport, its protection zones and the safety of air traffic. The lookout tower is 11m high, has two floors, wooden construction, where the most modern woodworking technology was used. The designer of the project was Ing. Juraj Lovich, and the contractor Interbau s.r.o.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the tower you will find a seating area from which you can enjoy a beautiful view of the entire panorama of the \u0160ari\u0161 region from \u0160ari\u0161 Castle Hill, Hradov\u00e1, Zobrana, Malkovsk\u00e1 h\u00f4rka, through Makovica, Bodo\u0148, Lys\u00e1, \u010cierna Hora to \u0160imonka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the lookout tower you will also find the cross road, which is often visited, as well as the well-known forest park \u0160v\u00e1b\u013eovka. Within the framework of the local action group, the Sabinov town hall has submitted an application for its revitalisation, which will increase the number of visitors to the town and bring back the glory of the famous forest park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
