Tubes (peak)

Tubes is the second-highest peak of the Mecsek mountain range in Hungary.

The peak's name probably derives from "tuba", a Hungarian word for wild dove.

[1] The peak is the site of a military radar station and a look-out tower.

The 22 metre-high tower was completed in 2001 and provides a clear view in every direction.

[2] In 2005, the Hungarian government chose Tubes as the site for a 3D NATO military radar, however, due to civil resistance, the project was developed in Tolna county.
