Zelená hora, Mountain summit near Cheb, Czech Republic
Zelená hora is a forested mountain reaching 641 meters in elevation near Cheb. Marked trails wind up its slopes toward a television tower and stone observation tower at the summit.
A stone observation tower was built in 1909 replacing an earlier wooden structure from 1891. This structure has defined the mountain's appearance and represents the region's early tourism growth.
A chapel dedicated to St. Anna sits on the slopes and draws visitors seeking a place for quiet reflection. The site has become meaningful to local communities as a destination for spiritual visits and observation.
The main access route starts from Horní Pelhřimov village where trails are well marked. Sturdy footwear is recommended as paths are uneven and conditions vary with the season.
On clear days visitors can see multiple mountain ranges from the summit including the Ore Mountains and Bohemian Forest. These distant views make the climb rewarding for landscape photography.
