A forest road leads to the tower, which is about 750 m from the main road. It turns into a dirt road through a meadow and a narrow path, all ending with a wooden footbridge. You can cycle there. There is not much space on site and the ground is marshy, so after heavy rainfall, reaching the spot might be a bit problematic.

The view of Lake Łuknajno is not visible in the photos, but through binoculars you could see swans. Why binoculars are necessary when going to observe birds.
