Kopaninka lookout tower in Repechy

The view from the 22 m high lookout tower, built at an altitude of 635 m above sea level, offers a magnificent view of surrounding hills and mountains – Králický Sněžník, Jeseníky, Beskydy and Hostýnské vrchy.

The tower, called Kopaninka, stands about half a kilometre south of the centre of the village of Repechy in the Prostějov region and 3 km from Protivanov. Kopaninka has a wooden structure made of larch wood with a steel spiral staircase. Its viewing platform is located at a height of 18 m. The spring of the local stream and the memorial cross of Jan Usnul, who tragically died while rescuing a drowning schoolboy at the dam of the Mill Stram in Olomouc-Repčín in 2011, are located near the lookout tower.
