Żeleźnica, Mountain summit in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland.
The Żeleźnica summit reaches 912 meters above sea level within the Orawsko-Podhalańskie range, featuring a conical peak covered by dense forest.
The mountain slopes contain World War I trenches beneath the peak, marking strategic military positions from the early twentieth century conflict.
Local stories tell of a lone spruce tree that once marked the summit, beneath which a boulder concealed an entrance to bandits' treasure-filled hideout.
Multiple marked hiking trails intersect near the western side of the summit, connecting routes through Orawka, Pająków Wierch, and Raba Wyżna.
The summit functions as part of the Carpathian watershed, directing water flows southward through a diminishing ridge between Orawa and Podhale regions.
