Alexander Filipek's lookout tower on Veľká Homola

If you like good tourism and beautiful views, take a trip to the hill Veľká Homola, which rises above the town of Modra. The lookout tower is built in a modern style and was named after the former forest manager Alexander Filípek, who not only took care of the forests, but also contributed to the development of tourism.

The lookout tower is really high, the upper viewing platform rises to a height of 20.4 meters. 120 steps lead to the top. If you conquer them, you will be offered a vast and beautiful view not only of the surrounding Little Carpathians, but also of the Danube Plain, White Carpathians, Považský Inovec, Tribeč, Strážovské vrchy, Vtáčnik, Veľká Fatra, Pohronský Inovec, Eastern Alps in Austria, Pavlovské vrchy and Mushrooms in Moravia.

Under the shelter you can relax and then set out on your way back, or you can peacefully continue to discover the natural beauties towards the rocky formation of the Three Riders, Kamenné vráta, Pezinská Baba or Zámčisko.

The Alexander Filípek lookout tower is accessible by a red sign from the bus stop at Zochova chata (approx. 2.5 km), from Modra by blue and from Pezinok by a red (or later green) tourist sign.
