Lávový suk Červená hora, Volcanic formation in Norberčany, Czech Republic
Description
Červená hora is an extinct volcano in the Hrubý Jeseník range reaching 1333 meters elevation and displays metamorphic rock formations. The steep slopes are covered with dense coniferous forests and offer views across the surrounding mountain landscape.
History
The mountain served for centuries as a natural boundary between the historical regions of Silesia and Moravia. This border position shaped its importance in the territorial organization of the Bohemian lands across extended periods.
Culture
The name refers to the reddish tones visible on the mountain's surface, caused by minerals in the rock formations. Visitors notice this distinctive coloring while walking through the different elevation zones of the summit.
Practical
Access is via unmarked paths through dense pine forests requiring careful navigation. Hikers should bring proper equipment and be dressed appropriately for changing weather and rough terrain.
Did you know?
The mountain sits on the European watershed and directs water in different directions to river systems flowing toward both the Baltic and Black seas. This hydrographic role makes it a point where water shapes different continental basins.
