Castle Hill (413 m above sea level) is the highest point in Lviv and the city's main free viewpoint. Of Prince Lev's castle and the later 14th-century stone fortress only fragments of the southern wall remain - the rest was dismantled in 1868-1869 to raise the Union of Lublin Mound, now topped by a 360-degree observation platform. The High Castle park opened in 1835; the climb from Kryvonosa St. takes 20-30 minutes along paths and wooden stairs. The hill adjoins the Znesinnia Regional Landscape Park, a natural extension of the walk with forest trails, ponds and views over eastern Lviv. Entry is free and the paths are lit at night.
Yes. The High Castle park and the observation platform on the Union of Lublin Mound are a free public space, open at any time.
About 20-30 minutes on foot from Kryvonosa St. along paths and wooden stairs to the top of the 413-metre hill, the highest point in Lviv.
