Lipka is a modest peak (473 m a.s.l.) in the Czupel and Magurka Wilkowicka group within the Beskid Mały range - a perfect goal for a relaxed, undemanding hike when you want to connect with the mountains without much effort.

The surroundings have the typical character of the Beskid Mały - gentle, forested hills, paths winding through beech and mixed woodland, and occasional breaks in the tree cover offering glimpses of neighbouring ridges. In spring and summer the trails are lush and green, autumn turns the forest golden, and in winter, once snow covers the paths, the area takes on a calm, almost intimate mood - a spot better suited to those who value quiet over crowds.

How to reach the summit

• The simplest approach follows the nearby Beskid Mały trails connecting Czupel and Magurka Wilkowicka - an easy to moderate route, taking most hikers a few hours round trip
• An alternative option is combining it with a longer ridge walk toward the nearby Lipka Pass, adding variety to the hike

Lipka may not be the region's best-known summit, but it is exactly these quieter spots that let you truly escape the noise and experience the authentic, peaceful character of the Beskid Mały.
