Lubomir, Mountain summit in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland
Lubomir is a mountain in the Carpathian range that rises to 904 meters and represents the highest point of the Makowski Beskid. The area is covered in forest, with several hiking paths leading up to the summit.
The summit bears marks from World War II, when Lieutenant Ryszard Mazur placed a metal badge with an anchor emblem to commemorate his partisan unit. This symbol recalls the resistance movements that operated in the region during the war.
The mountain features an operational astronomical observatory named after T. Banachiewicz, where visitors can participate in regular observations and night sky viewings.
The mountain is accessible via two main hiking routes: the red trail from Myślenice and the green trail from Węglówka. Additional forest paths also lead to the summit.
A viewpoint roughly 500 meters below the summit on the red trail offers views of northern landscapes, since the actual summit is thickly forested. Many visitors miss this hidden vantage point, even though it provides better distant views than the summit itself.
