    The Man Stones (Czech: Mužské kameny, Polish: Czeskie Kamienie) are a striking rock formation in the Giant Mountains. They are located on the main ridge of the mountains, about 6 kilometers north of Špindlerův Mlýn and 7.5 kilometers southeast of Szklarska Poręba, near the Czech-Polish border.
    The rock group rises to a height of 1,416 meters and is characterized by its typical woolsack weathering, which is characteristic of the Giant Mountains. With a length of over 50 meters and a height of about 12 meters, the Man Stones offer an impressive 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding landscape.
    In the immediate vicinity, about 750 metres to the east, are the Girls' Stones (Czech: Dívčí kameny, Polish: Śląskie Kamienie), which are only slightly lower at 1,414 metres. Both rock formations together form the double peak of the Hraniční hřeben (Border Ridge).

      The Girls' Stones (Dívčí kameny) and, a little further on, the Men's Stones (Mužské kameny) dominate the landscape on the common border with Poland, on the red-marked Czech-Polish Friendship Trail above the Bear's Valley (Medvědí důl), about 3 km from the Spindlerbaude. These rock formations bring a touch of drama to the otherwise rather monotonous Giant Mountains ridge with its rather rounded shapes.

        The Mannsteine are granite rock groups weathered with wool sacks, nice to climb and suitable as a resting place.
