Róg, Mountain summit in Central Sudetes, Poland.
Róg is a summit in the Central Sudetes standing at 715 meters, composed of Upper Cretaceous sandstone with steep faces on its southwestern and northern sides. The mountain rises above the surrounding landscape with rocky formations that give it a distinctive profile.
The mountain was formerly called Strittberg and marks an important point on the historical border between Polish and Czech territories in the Sudetes. Its location on this boundary shaped its role as a regional landmark across centuries.
A chapel dedicated to Saint Anne sits on the western slope, with stations of the cross marking a traditional mountain calvary route. These religious sites shape the experience during the climb and create moments of reflection along the path.
A red hiking trail connects the local road from Chełmsko Śląskie to Mieroszów, providing direct access to the peak through an approximately 1.6-kilometer path. The route is clearly marked and manageable for most hikers seeking a moderate climb.
Two parallel clearings on the southwestern slope function as takeoff points for paragliding toward Chełmsko Śląskie below. This distinctive feature attracts air sports enthusiasts from across the region.
