Králický Sněžník, Mountain summit at Czech Republic-Poland border.

Králický Sněžník reaches 1,423 m on the Czech-Polish border, the highest summit of the Eastern Sudetes and of the Śnieżnik Massif. Its frost-weathered summit dome sends out five ridges; above 1,350 m lie bare subalpine grasslands, below them spruce forest. A viewing tower stands on the Polish side.

The Kłodzko Mountain Society built a cylindrical stone viewing tower on the summit in 1895–1899, named after Emperor Wilhelm I, 33.5 m tall with six storeys and a small lodge attached. The neglected tower was blown up on 11 October 1973, and its rubble long formed the summit's high point. The Czech Liechtenstein lodge near the Morava spring, opened in 1912, was demolished in 1971; only its foundations remain.

The name refers to the long winter months when snow covers the summit for up to eight months each year. This characteristic shapes the appearance and perception of the mountain in the region.

Multiple hiking trails lead to the summit, including the European Long Distance Path E3 and the Eisenach-Budapest Mountain Trail. Routes pass through forested areas and over open ridge sections with varying gradients.

About 200 metres below the summit stands the Trojmezní kámen, a stone marking the historic tripoint of the Kingdom of Bohemia, the Margraviate of Moravia and the County of Kladsko. It is the northernmost point of the historic Bohemian-Moravian border. The summit itself lies on the European watershed: Polish streams drain to the Baltic, Czech ones to the Black Sea.
