Flat peak 1 km west of the village of Javorník. A vast summit on the eastern edge of a massive ridge, composed of porphyritic granite with remnants of a leveled surface. The northern and western slopes are covered with scree, while the eastern slope features the namesake village and a ski lift. At the summit stands a lookout tower from 1938, but due to the tall trees, the view has become limited, prompting an increase in height during renovations. Nearby ran the border of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The area is forested with spruce. According to measurements from 1933-37, the annual average precipitation on Javorník is only 750 mm. Two geodetic points are located on the summit plateau. (tisicovky.cz)
