Borsuczyny

The Borsuczyny summit rises to 939 meters in the Small Pieniny range, featuring steep rocky slopes covered with dense spruce forests.

The northern slopes below the peak contain the Kiczera Glade, which holds remnants of agricultural lands previously maintained by Lemko settlers from Jaworki.

The mountain summit forms part of the natural border between Poland and Slovakia, representing centuries of shared mountain heritage between both nations.

Hikers can access the peak through marked trails from Droga Pienińska, with alternative paths allowing visitors to bypass the steepest sections.

Scientists discovered the rare moss species Neckera besseri on the mountain slopes in 2016, adding to the peak's ecological importance.
