Mannsteine (Czeskie Kamienie) rock formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Man Stones (Czech: Mužské kameny, Polish: Czeskie Kamienie) are a striking rock formation in the Giant Mountains. They are located on the main ridge of the mountains, about 6 kilometers north of Špindlerův Mlýn and 7.5 kilometers southeast of Szklarska Poręba, near the Czech-Polish border.
The rock group rises to a height of 1,416 meters and is characterized by its typical woolsack weathering, which is characteristic of the Giant Mountains. With a length of over 50 meters and a height of about 12 meters, the Man Stones offer an impressive 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding landscape.
In the immediate vicinity, about 750 metres to the east, are the Girls' Stones (Czech: Dívčí kameny, Polish: Śląskie Kamienie), which are only slightly lower at 1,414 metres. Both rock formations together form the double peak of the Hraniční hřeben (Border Ridge).

Czarna Przełęcz Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

A nice place to rest, there's a covered shelter here.

From this point, you can turn off towards Czarny Kocioł along the black trail or continue along the blue trail to Czarna Przełęcz (2.6 km, according to the signs).
