Logged on Vrcholovka 35x in total. Vrchol Stožecká skála was added here by Michal Kříž and info was completed by Martin Matějka a Krtek.

Stožecká skála is part of challenge: Cross on the Summit of Domestic Mountains and Hills

A rock formation with a summit cross about 200 m above Stožecká chapel, offering views of Stožec and the Trojmezenský ridge. In ideal weather, parts of the Berchtesgaden Alps - Steinernes Meer (Schönfeldspitze) can likely be seen.

From the rock, there are luxurious views of the border ridge and the Boletické peaks, with a view from the summit cross also towards Luzný. Currently (2022), the surrounding forest is infested with bark beetles, so the views are likely to expand. The ascent is suitable to combine with a trip to Stožecká chapel and the summit of Stožec. The rock is definitely worth visiting repeatedly in different seasons. There is a solid pub in Stožec :-).
