Above the town of Sabinov <\/a><\/strong>Chance 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 \u201e\u0160vablovsk\u00e9 chodni\u010dky\u201c<\/a>. On the top there is a plain, where in September 2020 was inaugurated \u201eLookout tower on the Chance\u201c<\/strong>. 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 forest park \u0160vab\u013eovka.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Below the lookout tower there is another place to rest, the famous \u201eCrosses on Chance\u201c,<\/strong><\/a> which are part of the \u0160vab\u013eovka forest park, which is waiting for its revitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
