The European main watershed between the Elbe and the Danube runs over the Pancíř . The source of the Úhlava is located on the western slope , the Slatinný potok rises on the eastern slope and the Great Rain rises on the southern slope . To the north, on the ridge of the Pancíř, the peaks Habr (1203 m) and Můstek (1234 m), where the Křemelná originates , join .
From the viewing platform at a height of 18 m there is a good view of the Zwercheck and the Jezerní hora (High Sea Wall) with the Jezerní stěna (Sea Wall) rock face and the coffins of the Čertovo jezero (Devil's Lake) and Černé jezero (Black Lake) as well as parts of the Bohemian Forest, with a clear view as far as the Alps.
