The Hranice Karst is an exceptional karstic area in the Czech Republic and Europe due to its hydrothermal genesis. In 2016, the Hranice Abyss was declared the world’s deepest flooded abyss. Our study aims to propose appropriate measures that enable, once implemented, hikers and experts to benefit from visiting the territory while avoiding excessive damage to the natural world. Only the dry part of this deepest flooded abyss globally is visible to the average tourist. With its depth of 69.5 m and the fact that it is also hidden in the forest, the ordinary tourist misses other spatial contexts. Our proposed solution is constructing a lookout tower that would allow the hiker a view into the mouth of the abyss while staying safe and secure. Additional advantage involves the possibility of viewing the slopes of the Bohemian Massif (approx. 8–20 km away in northern direction) and the Beskydy Mountains that geologically belong to the Western Carpathians (the distance of approx. 20–40 km in N-E direction). This would provide a clear overview while giving realistic ideas about the geological and geomorphological forms of what is a region extending along the border of two geological units of European importance. For speleological research it is necessary to provide the descent down the slope of the abyss to the lake. The proposed option is the installation of via ferrata type belay at natural rock steps and the mounting of a metal staircase.
