Klet Mountain and Lookout Tower
Also known as Klet, Schoeninger
Kleť (German: Schöninger) at 1,084 meters is the highest peak in the Blanský les range above Český Krumlov, and its Josef's Tower lookout, built in 1825, offers a panoramic view across the Šumava (Bohemian Forest) and south Bohemia that explains why this mountain was used as a surveying point for historical cartography.
