Księża Góra, Mountain summit in Beskid Wyspowy range, Poland.

Księża Góra reaches an elevation of 829 meters and forms a meridional mountain range, distinguishing it from other peaks in Beskid Wyspowy.

The mountain forests served as hunting grounds for King Władysław I in the 14th century and later housed resistance fighters during World War II.

The name Ciecień first appeared in documents from 1365, referring to the characteristic notch between its two uneven peaks visible from the south.

The yellow hiking trail from Wiśniowa village extends 4.5 kilometers to the summit, with an elevation gain of 497 meters through forest paths.

The western slopes above Wiśniowa feature a meadow that has become a launching point for paragliders, offering views of surrounding mountains.
