Enchanting path lined with cripples over the Krkonoše ridge. In clear weather great view to Lower Silesia (left) and Bohemia (right). Mystic in fog.

Sněžka Meteorological Observatory

Highlight • Monument

The history of meteorological observations here on Śnieżka begins in 1824, but the first observatory was here since 1900. This one is named after Tadeusz Hołdys, who directed it for many years. Beautiful views!
