Zwalisko

Abendburg is a forested summit in Szklarska Poręba with observation points at the peak. From the top, you can see across the surrounding landscape and the marked trails that connect to nearby peaks.

The summit carries two names, Abendburg in German and Zwalisko in Polish, reflecting Lower Silesia's complex past. These dual names show how borders and populations in this region shifted across centuries.

The summit draws regular visitors from local mountaineering groups who maintain hiking routes across the region. This tradition of mountain exploration has been part of the area's identity for generations.

You can reach the summit via marked hiking trails that start from Szklarska Poręba and offer different difficulty levels. In winter, the route becomes more demanding and calls for sturdy boots or special gear because of the steep terrain.

The summit contains rare mineral deposits that regularly draw research teams from European universities for field studies. These geological features make it an interesting destination for anyone curious about geology and natural sciences.
