Studniční hora or Studničná hora (German: Brunnberg) is a cumulus mountain in the Giant Mountains in the Czech Republic. With an altitude of 1,555 m (5,102 ft), it is the third-highest peak of the mountain range and the entire country.[1]
Location
The mountain is located in the territory of Pec pod Sněžkou in the Hradec Králové Region, near the Czech-Polish border. It is situated in the Giant Mountains within the first zone of Krkonoše National Park and has an altitude of 1,555 m (5,102 ft) (1,554 m according to older measurements), making it 55 cm lower than the nearby Luční hora.[3] Access to the summit is prohibited.[4][5][6]
Studniční hora lies approximately 1 kilometre south of the main ridge. Between the main ridge (which appears relatively inconspicuous from the north) and Studniční hora lies the Úpské rašelinistě, home to the source of the Úpa and Bílé Labe rivers.[4]
To the west of Studniční hora is Luční hora. To the south is the valley Modrý důl. To the east is the valley Obří důl.
