Trupielec, Mountain peak in Glichowiec Range, Poland

The 476-meter summit of Trupielec forms the westernmost peak of the Glichowiec Range, with a long ridge descending to the Trzemeśnianka river.

During World War I, from December 1 to December 5, 1914, Russian forces established fortified positions on Trupielec, engaging in battles with Austro-Hungarian troops.

Archaeological excavations in 1934 revealed burial mounds from the 7th to 9th centuries at different elevations of the mountain, including one at its summit.

The mountain features several marked hiking trails, including a 1.4-kilometer path to Ostrysz peak that takes approximately 21 minutes to complete.

Local residents refer to the mountain as Trupiarka, a name derived from a 17th-century skirmish with Swedish forces that left animal remains scattered in the forest.
