Plešivec, Mountain summit in Krušné Hory, Czech Republic
Plešivec is a mountain summit in the Krušné Hory range at 1028 meters elevation with views across the surrounding landscape of northern Bohemia. The peak offers ski slopes, chairlifts, lodging options, and a year-round adventure park with activities for both families and adults.
The area was historically a mining region before transforming into a modern winter sports destination. Significant development projects started in the early 2000s and reshaped the mountain into a popular recreational area.
The mountain carries traces of its mining past that remain visible in the landscape and pathways today. Visitors can see how nature has gradually reclaimed the area while these historical marks from extraction work still shape what the place looks like.
The mountain offers trails in different difficulty levels for hikers and mountain bikers depending on the season and weather conditions. Infrastructure is well-developed with restaurants and rest areas available on the peak itself.
Winter brings night skiing on specific slopes while summer opens dedicated mountain biking trails. This dual use transforms the mountain into a different type of playground depending on the season.
