Wysoka Góra, Mountain peak in Beskid Sądecki range, Poland
Description
Wysoka Góra is a 527 meter peak in the Beskid Sądecki range, positioned between Cizowa Góra and the Dunajec valley. From its vantage point, you can see across to Krościenko nad Dunajcem and the surrounding terrain.
History
The mountain falls within the Poprad Landscape Park, created to protect the natural environment including mineral springs and Carpathian beech forests. This designation reflects efforts to safeguard the region's ecological character.
Culture
The southwestern slopes near Piaski hamlet connect to Karczma Pienińska, a restaurant serving traditional Polish mountain cuisine.
Practical
No marked hiking trails lead directly to the summit, though the mountain provides good views toward Szczawnica and the Dunajec Valley. Sturdy footwear helps when navigating the untracked terrain.
Did you know?
The Stodolskiego Potoku stream flows northward from the mountain into the Dunajec River, forming a natural water system that connects the two valleys. Few visitors realize how this drainage pattern shapes the local geography.
