How to get to the tower

A green trail runs alongside the tower, leading from Lubań through Leśna and Pobiedna, and on via Smrek to Świeradów-Zdrój.

  1. Drive to the end of Hetmańska Street in Pobiedna.
  2. Park outside the Single Mother’s Home at 61 Hetmańska Street.
  3. Leave the tarmac and take the dirt track, then head south-east, following the green signposts.
  4. After about 400 metres, you’ll reach the tower.
