Table Mountains
The Table Mountains (Polish: Góry Stołowe, German: Heuscheuergebirge, Czech: Stolové hory) are a 42-kilometre (26 mi)-long mountain range in Poland and the Czech Republic, part of the Central Sudetes. The range is situated southeast of the Karkonosze. The Polish part of the range is protected as the Table Mountains National Park. The highest peak of the range is Szczeliniec Wielki at 919 m (3,015 ft) a.s.l.[1]
The range is built of sandstone and, as the only one in Poland, presents plated structure with sheer ledges.[2] Among the tourist attractions there are rocky formations Błędne Skały and Szczeliniec Wielki.[3]
