Moorberg, Mountain summit in Bohemian Forest, Czech Republic.
Velká Mokrůvka (Moorberg) is a 1370 m summit on the Czech-Bavarian border, 2.5 km southeast of Březník, the highest point of the Plzeň Region. It forms a pronounced north-south structural ridge of granodiorite above the Luzenský valley, with small rock outcrops in the summit area.
The summit lies on the state border between the Czech Republic and Bavaria, 2.5 km southeast of Březník. Its Czech name Velká Mokrůvka, German Moorberg, reflects the bilingual mountain area. At 1370.4 m it is the highest point of the Plzeň Region, one metre above Blatný vrch on the Czech side.
