description

Information board and stairs to the observation tower

The Schwarzenberg has a distinctive summit thanks to its relatively high altitude and steep slopes. In the second half of the 20th century there was a wooden triangulation tower on the summit . It is not known when this tower was demolished. The mountain top is made of igneous rocks of red rhyolite and tuff and melaphyren , a testimony to earlier volcanic activity.

To the northeast is the Dürre Berg ( Sucha ), to the north the Kahle Berg ( Kosciol ) and the Kaudersberg ( Wołowiec ).

The Polish name Borowa was set in 1949 to replace the previous German name.
