Janova skála, Mountain summit in Krkonoše Mountains, Czech Republic.
Brand Berg is a mountain summit in the Krkonoše Mountains featuring granite rock formations and steep cliff faces. The peak offers views across the surrounding valleys and neighboring ridges.
The summit has carried two names - Janova skála in Czech and Brand Berg in German - reflecting the region's linguistic heritage. This dual naming shows the cultural diversity of the border area across generations.
Local mountaineering groups organize regular expeditions to the summit, maintaining traditional climbing routes established by early Czech alpinists.
Marked hiking trails lead to the summit from nearby villages, with the main route taking about two hours. The terrain is rocky and steep, so sturdy footwear and proper equipment are necessary.
The summit supports specialized plant species adapted to the high altitude and harsh conditions. This flora is found at very few other locations in the region.
