Śnieżnik Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

Králický Sněžník, obsoletely also Kladský Sněžník, is the highest peak of the mountain range of the same name, the third highest in the Czech Republic, located on the state border with Poland, with a length of approximately 16 km stretching from the town of Králíky to Kladské sedlo. It is the fourth highest peak of the Crown of Mountains of Poland and the highest point of the Ústí nad Orlicí district and the entire Pardubice region.
A new observation tower has been built on the Polish side of the hill.

The construction of the original observation tower began in 1895 thanks to the initiative of the Kladské mountain association. Work took place only in the summer, so the construction was spread over several years. In July 1899, the observation tower at the top of Sněžník was put into operation.
In 1966, entry to the viewpoint was definitively prohibited, and in 1973, Polish engineers blew up the stone lookout tower under the cover of fog.

PTTK shelter "Na Śnieżniku."

Highlight • Mountain Hut

A good place to rest before climbing Śnieżnik. It is worth taking rain gear with you. You can eat a warm meal on site. Free toilet. Accommodation must be booked in advance.

The cave was cut in a marble quarry on October 14, 1966 when it was blown up. The demolition manager and another employee got into the newly covered hall and discovered a lot of bear bones.
From that day the quarry was shut down and the cave was examined and explored. About 200 meters
courses were noted back then.
