Mezivrata, Summit in Central Bohemian Region, Czech Republic

Mezivrata is the highest point of Benešov District and of the Miličín Highlands, reaching 713 m. It is a structural ridge of Moldanubian metquartzites whose outcrops form rock shapes, and its summit is wooded with spruces, beeches and scattered firs. A 102 m lattice radio tower built in 1989 stands on top.

In 1919 Artuš Aichelburg, owner of the Neustupov estate, had a wooden lookout tower built on the summit. President Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk climbed it on 15 August 1919 during a visit to Hostišov. The tower was later demolished and replaced in 1939 by a brick surveying tower of the Geodetic Office, one of nine built in 1938–1941.

The name Mezivrata refers to the hill between ridges, and the summit lies in the cadastral area of Neustupov, whose first written mention dates from 1186. The market town of Neustupov was promoted by Emperor Leopold I in 1666. The hill is the highest point of the Benešov District and of the Vlašim Uplands.

Several hiking trails of different difficulty levels provide access to the summit, allowing visitors to choose a route that matches their fitness level. The trails are straightforward and can be managed within a couple of hours depending on your pace.

The summit's 102 m lattice radio tower, built in 1989, carries dipole antennas for analogue radio broadcasting as well as FM and TV signals. It replaced a 1939 survey tower of the Geodetic Office, one of nine such structures raised in 1938–1941; the similar tower on Studený vrch survives as a comparison.
