Lookout tower

Zalaerdő PLtd had the former oil derrick at the Boating Lake reconstructed and renovated in 2017. The building which had been closed since the end of the 1980s has two lookout storeys; the lower one is 28 metres and the upper one is 43 metres above the landscape. Thus, it is one of the tallest lookout towers in the country. You can reach the upper storey after climbing 230 stairs.

 

You can have an unforgettable and unique view from the lookout tower on the town and on the hilly areas covered with forests of both Zala and Somogy County.
