Mount Łysa Góra of the Łysogóry Range at the horizon, seen from the east

Łysogóry is the largest mountain range in Świętokrzyskie Mountains. It is 25 km long, and runs from the Lubrzanka river in the northwest, to the area of Nowa Słupia in the southeast. It contains the highest peak of the Świetokrzyskie Mountains (Łysica) and its most famous mountain (Łysa Góra).[1]

Łysogóry can be divided into two parts:

  • eastern half, densely covered by the Jodlowa Wilderness (Puszcza Jodlowa), which contains both highest peaks of the range, and it lies within boundaries of Swietokrzyski National Park,
  • western half, less forested and with smaller peaks.

Łysogóry is mostly made of quartzite, with numerous stone runs. The range is crossed by several tourist trail - red trail of Edmund Massalski, and two blue trails.
