How long does a visit take?

You will turn around three times in one visit, which takes about 10 minutes. It's enough time to wander from the top to the sea, the Palanga Bridge, the setting sun and the small houses below.

What is the experience like in the cockpit?

A visit here is a brief respite. On windy days, there's a slight swaying of the cabin as you climb up, so those who want a little more adrenaline can enjoy it. On hot days, the cabins are cooled, so you'll be comfortable even in high temperatures. Thanks to modern technology, panoramic views can be enjoyed whatever the weather.

The cabins are safe, clean and enclosed, offering a degree of privacy. Even those with a fear of heights say they felt safe in this observation deck - no distracting noise and a breath-taking view.

Do we recommend visiting with children?

Yes, children are also usually fascinated by the views. It's short, so they don't get bored. It is free for children under 3 years old.

The observation wheel is safe and child-friendly - the booths are closed and secure and visitors are not allowed in bad weather. The cabins can accommodate a pushchair and have ramps for access. The only thing to consider is whether children are afraid of heights.

The observation wheel is also accessible for visitors with reduced mobility, allowing wheelchair access without obstruction.
