Observation towers and sight-seeing locations

• Alexander's Lookout Tower 
  A lookout tower built on the steep slope over the river Svitava in 1887 was named after Alexander Suchanek, who has merit in its foundation. The building lost its original romantic features during the Second World War, when it was razed almost to the ground for strategic reasons. Its redemption was the position favourable for retranslation of television signal - torso of the tower was rebuilt to a transmitter with a gallery open to public in 1963. Unfortunately, the lookout tower is rather low and its vista is limited to surrounding woods of Drahanská vrchovina.

• Burian's viewing tower (Milenka) 
  The restored square stone tower (18 meters high) with a sheltered gallery is situated near the village Rudka, known for its artificial Cave of Blanik Knights. The idea to build a lookout tower near Rudka came from F. Burian, the mayor of Kunštát, in the early 1930s and when it was put into service in 1931, it was befitting to name it after him. It was built during the economic crisis and the construction process helped overcome the misery of the local unemployed for a time. The gallery provides a view of forests of Českomoravská vrchovina and Drahanská vrchovina and sometimes reputedly even Praděd in Hrubý Jeseník.
