Eliaszówka (1,023 m a.s.l.) is the highest peak of the Lubovňa Hills — a quiet, border-straddling summit with a surprising amount of character. Sitting right on the Polish-Slovak frontier, it rewards hikers with a wooden observation tower, a touch of wartime history, and a sense of being far from the crowds.

The summit itself is now covered in forest and no longer offers open panoramas on its own — but a 20-metre wooden observation tower with a roof has been built right on top to fix exactly that. From the platform you can take in the surrounding ridges of the Poprad Foothills. The best open views along the route, though, come during the ascent from Piwniczna-Zdrój. The Slovak slopes still hold some clearings that are slowly being reclaimed by trees. In winter, the north-eastern flank is home to the Sucha Dolina ski resort, one of the larger ones in the area.

• Piwniczna-Zdrój — hiking trail, approx. 2 h up (↓ 1:30 h), moderate
• Gromadzka Pass (938 m) — hiking trail, approx. 0:45 h up (↓ 0:40 h), easy
• Sucha Dolina — cycling route via Obidza and Gromadzka Pass to the summit and on to Piwniczna-Zdrój
• Litmanová (Slovakia) — approach from the Slovak side, no marked trails but access is permitted

• The summit features a 20-metre roofed wooden observation tower, a fireplace area, and a mountain-bike obstacle course.
• A tourist border crossing Eliaszówka–Eliášovka operated here until 21 December 2007; crossing the ridge between Poland and Slovakia is still possible.
• On the Slovak slope, at the Zvir clearing near Litmanová, lies the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Litmanová — a popular pilgrimage site that can draw larger crowds during the pilgrimage season.

During World War II and for years afterwards, Eliaszówka was a key crossing point for couriers of the Polish Underground State — one of those summits where history is quite literally beneath your feet.
