Jelení hora

Jelení hora, Mountain summit in Karkonosze, Czech Republic.

Löwen Berg, or Jelení hora, is a 1173 m summit in the eastern Krkonoše, about 3.5 km southeast of Sněžka. It ends a spur running south from Svorová hora, with steep slopes dropping into the Lví důl and Jelení důl valleys and a narrow ridge to the northwest. Spruce forest survives near the top; no path or building stands on the summit itself.

Jelení hora is the end of a spur running south from Svorová hora, about 2.7 km away, and lies roughly 3.5 km southeast of Sněžka in the territory of Malá Úpa. Its slopes, especially the western one dropping into Lví důl, were once covered by spruce monoculture that has been largely cleared, with forest surviving near the summit. A non-public forest road from Lví důl circles the peak at about 1050–1100 m and links the settlements of Šímovy Chalupy and Niklův Vrch.

The Czech name Jelení hora and the German Löwenberg (Lion Mountain) both appear in the sources, the German one recorded as Löwenberg, meaning "Lion Mountain". The summit lies in the municipality of Malá Úpa, and the slopes below it hold two mountain settlements, Šímovy Chalupy on the south side and Niklův Vrch on the northeast.

No marked trail leads over the summit, and the whole massif is closed to tourists; a yellow route from Dolní Malá Úpa to Horní Malá Úpa was blazed around the slopes but soon cancelled. The only significant path is an unpaved forest road, not open to the public, climbing from Lví důl and passing the hamlets of Šímovy Chalupy and Niklův Vrch at about 1050–1100 m.
