Lovoš, Summit in Bohemian Central Mountains, Czech Republic
Lobosch is a mountain in the Bohemian Central Mountains featuring two distinct peaks called Malý Lovoš and Velký Lovoš that reach about 570 meters (1,870 feet). The twin summits sit near the town of Lovosice and shape the surrounding landscape noticeably.
A first hut stood on the summit from 1881 to 1892; after a fire in 1918, Prince von Schwarzenberg had a new hut built in 1924. It decayed after the Second World War and, following reconstruction from 1977, has been in operation again since 1981. The summit itself is the main peak at 573 m, with the lower Kibička at 488 m.
The summit lodge belongs to the Czech Tourist Club (KČT). A first hut stood here from 1881 to 1892; after a 1918 fire, Prince Schwarzenberg had a new one built in 1924. It decayed after World War II, was reconstructed from 1977 and has operated again since 1981.
Several hiking trails reach the summit from Lovosice, Opárno village, and Košťálov with some steep sections along the way. The mountain lodge offers a good resting point after climbing.
From the tower, the Elbe Valley, Píšťany Lake, and several mountain peaks including distant Hazmburk Castle come into view. This panorama makes the journey worthwhile for many visitors.
