Kępa

Kępa is a mountain summit located at 1530 meters within the eastern ridge of Babia Góra, with steep northern slopes that drop sharply and gentler southeastern inclines that rise more gradually. The summit sits along a main hiking corridor that connects several peaks in this section of the range.

The area around this summit has been a long-established mountain route, developed during the 19th and early 20th centuries as local climbers and hikers explored these peaks. The ridge became part of organized trekking paths that connected communities on either side of the mountains.

The summit forms part of the Main Beskid Trail, connecting multiple peaks and serving as a significant route for Polish mountain exploration.

A marked hiking trail connects this summit to nearby peaks and serves as the main route for visitors exploring the area. Most hikers spend several hours on the ascent depending on their starting point and fitness level.

Near the trail between Kępa and Gówniak lies the Zimna Dolinka ridge trench, concealing the hidden Zimny Stawek water formation.
