Suchý vrch, Mountain summit in Orlické Mountains, Czech Republic

Suchý vrch is the highest double-peaked mountain of the southern Orlické Mountains, reaching 995 metres, with a lower companion peak called Bradlo at 988 metres about 600 metres northwest. The summit holds a small alpine meadow and a radio transmitter, while the slopes are covered with spruce forest.

The mountain formed during Precambrian geological processes and later became a strategically important border defense site in the 1930s. A presidential visit in 1937 highlighted its role during a period of rising tensions in the region.

Kramářova chata, named after politician Karel Kramář, was built in 1928 to the design of Jaroslav Stejskal; the concrete watchtower added in 1931–1932 was designed by A. Patrmann. The hut was called Tyršova after World War II, burned in July 2003 and reopened after reconstruction in 2012.

You can climb to the observation platform via stairs and take in the far-reaching views from the top. The mountain hut provides a place to rest and helps orient visitors making their way to the summit.

Water flows away from beneath the mountain toward two different seas, meaning rainfall here can eventually reach completely separate bodies of water. This makes the location an important point on the European water divide.
