Formberg is a mountain summit located in Lower Silesia near the border between Poland and Germany. The peak sits at a point where the landscape opens up, offering views of the surrounding terrain and neighboring mountains.

The area was once part of Prussian territory, which is why it carried a German name for centuries. When the regional borders shifted after 1945, the mountain received its current Polish name.

People in the area have long followed seasonal patterns tied to the land, gathering plants and herbs that grow on the slopes. These everyday practices shape how locals connect with the mountain and continue to be part of the rhythm of life here.

Several marked hiking routes lead to the summit from different starting points, with rest stops and information boards positioned along the way. The mountain is accessible to walkers of various fitness levels.

On clear days, the summit offers views of dozens of nearby mountain peaks, allowing visitors to understand the layout of the entire mountain range. This vantage point makes it an exceptional spot for grasping how the surrounding terrain fits together.
