Praděd, Mountain summit in Malá Morávka, Czech Republic.

The 1491-meter peak of Pradziad stands as the fifth highest mountain in the Czech Republic, featuring a 162-meter television transmitter with observation platform.

The first stone watchtower on Pradziad, constructed between 1903 and 1912 by the Sudeten German tourist association, collapsed in May 1959 due to poor maintenance.

The mountain shares its name with Pradziad, a mythological figure considered the guardian spirit of the Jeseníky Mountains, similar to Krakonoš in Krkonoše.

The ski resort operates from October to May, with multiple slopes for different skill levels and parking facilities at Hvězda crossroads and Karlova Studánka.

The mountain forms a natural border between water basins, with streams flowing to both the Baltic Sea and the Black Sea from its slopes.
