Wild Upa

Highlight • River

Beautiful cascades, since the river flooded the town of Peck several times, it was straightened and secured with a dam.

Upa Weir

Highlight • Waterfall

A small basin from which the water flows from about 1.5 m height. Certainly impressive at a higher level

Obří Důl (Giant Gorge)

Highlight (Segment) • Gorge

A few beautiful little waterfalls are there, otherwise you will see only a few hotels and guesthouses.

View of Śnieżka

Highlight • Viewpoint

The boss in the Giant Mountains, the Czech Republic and Poland share the summit, while you can walk from the Polish side, you can comfortably take the cable car from the Czech side.

The way to the snowball, quite comfortable.

1603 m asl, in favorable weather conditions the visibility is 200 km.

Unfortunately, only the kiosk on the Czech side is still open.

The Sächsische Zeitung reported on December 28, 2021 that the restaurant on the Polish side should reopen in 2025.

West view from Śnieżka

Highlight • Viewpoint

Actually, the Šnezka looks like an oversized pile of stones. But once you're at the top, you can enjoy the fantastic view all around. As long as there are no clouds. Of course. 😎 A little warning: It can happen that a lot of hikers find the Šnezka great...

Boardwalk to Luční Bouda

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A high moor that rightly bears its name. Feet stay dry while eyes wander far into the distance.

July 25, 2025,Tag 2 Pec pod Snezkou - Runde zu Snezka

Day 2 in the Czech Giant Mountains without Murphy... a circular hike to Snezka. The route was generally very quiet, with few hikers on the trail. From the Schlesierhaus, however, there were suddenly crowds of people. The last few meters up to Snezka were made at a slow pace... that's what it's supposed to be like on Mont Everest by …

October 4, 2025,🇨🇿 🇵🇱 Mit Komoot Freunden auf die Sněžka

For the second hike of our KWW (Komoot Hiking Weekend), I suggested a tour to the Schneekoppe and the Wiesenbaude to the other Komoot users. I've been there before, but it seems like Ricardo R. makes a Zugspitze tour every year. With the five official routes I know up the Zugspitze, he'll have to come up with something new soon. …

"Ahoy" is how hikers greet each other on the trails here 😊
After my second and, unfortunately, last hike in this region (the weekend is almost over 😅), I dare say that the Czech Republic is beautiful and a very special landscape for hiking. This tour lured us to Snĕžka. And not just us... Despite the steep climb and the …

After Friday's wonderful tour through the rock town of Adršpach and Teplice, @Deleted User, @Ricardo R, @De Höchte, @Theold, @Christian Heeren, I, Bella, and Ebby set out on Saturday to conquer the highest mountain in the Czech Republic.

The Śnieżka may be "only" 1,603.2 m high, but its name says it all🤭. However, that didn't stop us from tackling the …

On the move quickly, marching with vigor, upwards, quickly. Snow on the way.
Intermediate destination Lucni Bauda, towards Schneekoppe, enjoyed the path, moving quickly.
Some with heavy luggage, even small children's bikes are pulled by a rope.
Lots of hikers on the way, the path is easy, descent to Secs pod Snezkou. Becomes my favorite path.
Blondes struggle up, curled …

Outstanding hike with snow and sun 🌞. But nothing for the inexperienced.
