Listen to the guide

On the upper edge of the village of Veľké Borové, in the part of Chlebnice, in the easternmost part of the Choč Hills, there is a nice, far visible brick building with a wooden roof, stairs and ochodza. It stands next to the Pension pri Veži, on the border of Liptov and Orava. It is a bell tower, which today also serves as a lookout tower. The small bell is placed in the top wooden sound cage, which is topped with a lightning rod. The romantic modification of the building was created by the construction modification of the original transformer station. The ochodze at a height of about five metres offers beautiful views of the surrounding mountains - Roháče, Skorušinské vrchy, Chočské vrchy and Orava hills. There is also a hunting room in the tower. Access to the Tower is possible by car through Huty and Veľké Borové, but the last three hundred meters must be walked.
