Borówkowa, Mountain summit at Czech-Polish border, Czech Republic

The mountain summit rises to 900 meters, featuring a 25-meter observation tower that provides views of the Bardo, Owl, and Jeseníky mountain ranges.

Between 1929 and World War II, the summit hosted the Schutzhaus Heidelkoppe mountain hut, preceded by three observation towers built in 1882, 1900, and 1922.

The summit served as a meeting point for Czech and Polish Solidarity movements during the 1980s, with participants including future president Vaclav Havel.

Visitors can access the summit through marked trails from three main points: Złoty Stok and Lądek-Zdrój in Poland, and Javorník in the Czech Republic.

The mountain presents an unusual border arrangement where the Polish territory extends to the southern slope, contrary to typical geographical border patterns.
