Diana Tower (547 m above the sea level)

This tower built in 1914 at the height of friendship can be found at the Friendship Hill above the Grandhotel Pupp. You can reach the tower by walking along forest trails or by the funicular, which runs at intervals of 15 minutes. The funicular ride to the lookout tower takes about 3 minutes, but by walking it will take around half an hour.

Observation deck on the top of the Diana tower is at the height of 25 meters and can be reached either by an elevator, or you can stretch your legs on its 150 steps. If the weather is beautiful, you can reportedly see the places at a distance of up to 70 km. How far your eyes can see can be tried every day at NO CHARGE, except during January.
