Miedzianka

Miedzianka is a mountain summit in the Swietokrzyskie Mountains featuring three distinct peaks that create an interesting profile. The highest point rises 354 meters above sea level and offers views across the wider Lysogory range toward Kielce city.

Copper mining on this mountain began in the 14th century and shaped its development over generations. By the 16th century, mining had become more organized with formal regulations governing extraction practices.

The name Miedzianka comes from copper mining that shaped the region for centuries. Walking here, you notice how mining left marks on the landscape that locals and visitors continue to experience today.

Marked trails lead from the parking area to the summit, taking roughly 15 to 20 minutes on foot to reach the top. The routes are well signposted and manageable for visitors of different fitness levels, with a steady climb throughout.

Beneath the surface lies the Zofia Cave system, extending 715 meters underground and created through both natural geological processes and centuries of mining work. This hidden network reveals how natural forces and human activity combined to shape the mountain.
