Snowy Steps Near Sněžka Summit

Highlight • Trail

In the winter months, Grödeln or shoe spikes are the order of the day, the stairs were badly crumpled at the beginning of December.

Café at Sněžka Summit

Highlight • Cafe

Here you can buy something to drink or souvenirs. There is a small viewing tower with a viewing platform that can be visited for a fee. Very good for a break.

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!
