Information

Lysá hora is the dominant feature of the Moravian-Silesian Beskydy Mountains and offers not only beautiful views, but also a rich history and interesting geology. The peak of the mountain is nicknamed Gigula and four peaks extend from it: Malchor, Zimný, Kobylanka and Lukšinec. At the top there is a meteorological station, a telecommunications tower and two tourist huts that provide refreshments and rest.

Nature reserves and monuments in the area, such as Ondrášovy díry, Mazák and Mazácký Grúnik, protect the local fauna and flora, including original mountain spruce and fir-beech forests. The Ostravice River bed and the Satiny Waterfalls add to the beauty of this area, which is rich in geomorphological formations and ruins.
