Lookout towers on the Tank Road

Lookout towers on the Tank Road

Turiec

Not far from the town of Martin, above the villages of Trebostovo and Turčiansky Peter, there is a former tank testing track, where you can find two wooden observation towers approximately 2 km apart, the lookout tower on Tank Road (Tanková cesta) and the lookout tower below Bokšín. The route begins at the Slovak National Uprising memorial in Bukoviny, Martin - Stráne and ends in the village of Trnovo. In Turiec, structurally simple lookout towers were built along cycle paths to make cycling more interesting. The lookout tower on Tank Road (Tanková cesta) boasts magnificent views of the city of Martin, the Veľká Fatra Mountains, including the peaks of Lysec, Borišov, Ploská, Tlstá, Ostrá and Drienok, and the Malá Fatra Mountains. These two lookout towers are part of a cycle path that will take you by five lookout towers in Turiec. It is approximately 50 km long, so it is possible to complete the trip in one day. In addition to the city of Martin itself, there are several other attractions in the area. The Museum of the Slovak Village is the largest natural exhibition in Slovakia, comprising 145 buildings from the Žilina region. Valča Valley is home to a well-known ski resort, which offers a wide range of sporting activities even in summer.
