Dyleň (940 meters)

Unfortunately, you will not see anything interesting here. The whole complex is fenced and closed. The top is overgrown with trees and shrubs, through them you can not see anywhere.

It's basically a uphill walk. At the top is only a television tower, no view. To revive, after about 700 meters, the Germans have their center of Europe ...

The tower and the surrounding buildings are still surrounded by the original barbed wire fencing. The area is inaccessible to tourists and is guarded, but it can be bypassed and partially inspected. There is a small museum in one of the buildings, but it was closed at the time of my visit. From the back of this complex, in clear weather, it is easy to see the distant surroundings. The object of electronic warfare - the top of the mountain, lying between the border with Germany and the Iron Curtain, the line of which is still visible about a kilometer inland, was of strategic importance during the Cold War. Due to the fact that it is a distinctive hill with a distant view of Bavaria, a residential building for a military garrison, an observation tower and a listening tower were built on it. Radio traffic was monitored here in almost the whole of Bavaria. On the contrary, a similar tower used for the same purposes of American intelligence services still stands on Mount Schneeberg in Germany. The listening station lost its significance after the Velvet Revolution. In the 1990s, its equipment was dismantled, the tower was reconstructed and currently serves as a retransmission tower, a transmitter of television and radio programs.

Super views, beautiful surroundings, show everyone who doesn't believe what it used to be rough. The owner also arranged a mini museum about former "guards" and added historical facts. It's best to find out the famous Dyleň events and be sure you'll see everything. Otherwise maximum with the object manager.

The path for cyclists is fine, only the lookout tower is not there 😃
