Łysocina, Mountain summit in Malá Úpa, Czech Republic and Poland.
Description
Łysocina is a mountain peak reaching 1190 meters in elevation as part of the Maloúpská rozsocha range. The summit features forested slopes mixed with exposed rock outcrops and sits directly on the border between two countries.
History
The mountain developed through tectonic activity over millions of years as part of the Sudetes range. Its current shape was shaped by erosion and ice-age processes that left the exposed rock formations visible today.

Practical
The summit is accessible via marked trails starting from Malá Úpa, with the route becoming more challenging during colder months. Hikers planning winter visits should bring proper gear to handle snow and icy conditions on the exposed areas.
