Klič

Kleis is a mountain summit in the Lusatian Mountains of North Bohemia, reaching approximately 500 meters (1640 feet) in elevation. The peak offers views across the surrounding forested hills and valleys that characterize this part of the country.

The mountain has been known by two names for centuries: Klíč in Czech and Kleis in German, reflecting the region's long history of cultural interaction. This dual naming tradition demonstrates the close ties between Czech and German-speaking communities that shaped the area.

The summit serves as a recognized landmark for the surrounding region and locals often use it as a meeting point or starting place for weekend excursions. The area reflects rural North Bohemian traditions where outdoor activities remain deeply rooted in daily life.

Multiple marked hiking trails lead to the peak from different starting points in the surrounding area. Parking facilities are available near the base of the mountain where most trails begin.

A hotel now operates in a restored brewery building near the mountain, combining accommodation with traditional beer production and guided tours of the brewing process. This unusual setup allows visitors to experience the mountain landscape alongside local brewing traditions.
