At the Three Stones is the name of the crossroads of the Czech Tourist Board's tourist routes in the Hostýn Hills, less than a kilometer southwest of the top of Kyčera. The crossroads is approximately 735 meters above sea level. It was named after the three boundary stones that mark the borders of three former estates – Kelč, Bystřice and Lukov. The boundary stones were marked at the end of the eighteenth century, mostly in the years 1790-1798, very exceptionally in the second stage around 1830.[1] Today, it is the border of the municipalities of Rajnochovice, Chvalčov and Držková. On the southern slope below the crossroads lies the Solisko natural monument, protecting a preserved fir-beech forest. In the vicinity, we can find the springs of the Bystřička, Rusava and Juhyně, and from here you can also go to Tesák, Troják or Hostýn.

The Maruška lookout tower not only has a beautiful name, but also a Wallachian appearance, which was given to it by craftsmen from the nearest village of Hošťálková in the Vsetín region. The wooden structure is 16 m tall and has been standing on the top of Maruška since 2014. You only need to climb 40 steps and you will be offered a view of the Hostýnské vrchy, Beskydy and Javorníky mountains. You cannot get to the lookout tower directly by car, but you can park at the Troják Ski Resort car park, from where it is 2 km along the green tourist trail. There is also a bus stop at the same place. Those who would like to choose a longer route can set off from the village of Hošťálková, where a bus from Vsetín goes. You can follow the blue trail and at the crossroads above Trojákem continue along the Tesák educational green trail to the lookout tower, which is less than 5 km away. There is also a 5 km long cycle path over Bludný mountain. The nearest refreshment point is the Na Trojáku restaurant, which also has a children's playground. Those who would like something more luxurious can visit the restaurant in the Hošťálková castle in the village of the same name, below the lookout tower. The Maruška lookout tower is open all year round and has unlimited opening hours. Admission is free.

The two-story wooden lookout tower in the Wallachian style was opened to the public in 2014. It also serves as a location for the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute. From the observation platform at a height of 12 meters, a panorama of the Hostýnské and Vizovice Hills, the Javorníky Mountains or the Moravian-Silesian Carpathians spreads out before you. The lookout tower is freely accessible.
