Čuba Hill Look Out Tower
Čubův kopec (Čuba Hill) is the highest point of mountain range between communities of Francova Lhota and Střelná, in an altitude of 720,3 metres above sea level. It is placed in East Moravia, in south-west part of Javorníky Mountains, 400 metres distant from Slovak border, and 11 kms distant from the town of Valašské Klobouky.
In 1991, there was constructed here 16 m high wooden view-tower, which was free accessible. Later, in 2004, this look out tower was completely replaced with quite new one building of the same type, and it is two metres higher (the reason for reconstruction: bad technical stage).
