Trzy Kopce, Mountain summit in Żywiec Beskids, Poland.
Trzy Kopce is a limestone summit in the western Żywiec Beskids that stands at 1082 meters elevation. The peak features distinctive rock formations that give the mountain its distinctive character and appearance.
The mountain served as a boundary marker between administrative regions since medieval times. This role established it as a geographical reference point in the region's political organization.
Local mountain guides maintain traditional practices by organizing guided walks to the summit during annual mountain festivals in summer months.
Multiple marked trails approach the summit from nearby villages and are generally well-signposted and moderately accessible. Winter ascents require additional gear due to snow coverage at higher elevations.
From the summit, visitors can see across three mountain ranges: the Silesian Beskids, Little Beskids, and Żywiec Beskids. This panoramic vantage point makes it possible to observe the surrounding mountain landscape from a single location.
