Grodzisko, Mountain summit in Beskid Wyspowy, Poland

Grodzisko rises to 618 meters above sea level, featuring steep forest-covered slopes and a characteristic cone shape in the Beskid Wyspowy mountain range.

The summit contains remnants of an ancient stronghold with ditches, moats, and ramparts dating from the Lusatian culture through the first Piast dynasty period.

The mountain served as a base for the 'Smialy' partisan unit during World War II, now commemorated by memorial plaques and a cross at the summit.

Visitors access the summit via an 800-meter blue hiking trail from Poznachowice Gorne, ascending approximately 200 meters through dense forest terrain.

Between adjacent peaks Cubla Gora and Ksiaza Gora stands a pillar-shaped chapel from 1869, accompanied by resting areas with benches.
