Polczakówka Observation Tower

The Polczakówka Observation Tower stands on the hill of Góra Królewska in Rabka-Zdrój, which locals call Polczakówka. The hill is 588 m above sea level and rises about 120 metres above the Raba valley.

The hill and the views

At the top stands a wooden tower offering a panorama of the area. The eastern slopes are taken up by a large meadow above the Królewski Stream, where the Królówka estate lies, and to the south and south-east the hill is treeless. A Polczakówka ski lift also runs on these slopes.

Nearby

The Main Island Beskids Trail runs along the ridge. Short distances link the hill with the spa centre of the town; for example, it is about two kilometres from here to the Spa Park in Rabka-Zdrój.
