Lipska Góra (625 m a.s.l.) is a charming forested summit in the Żurawnica Group of the Beskid Mały range in southern Poland, offering rewarding views southward to the Jałowiec Range, the Polica Range and the iconic Babia Góra massif. It is a wonderfully quiet destination, perfect for those who want a relaxed hike away from the crowds.
The entire massif is blanketed in forest, but clearings near the summit open up to beautiful panoramas that make the climb worthwhile. The lower slopes are dotted with farmland and pastures, giving the landscape a classic, pastoral Beskid feel. The slopes descending toward the Błądzonka valley are compact and uniform, while the western and southern flanks are more varied and broken. Each season brings a different mood: fresh greens in spring, cooling shade in summer, and a spectacular palette of autumn colours that transform the hillsides into something truly special.
How to reach the summitThe mountain takes its name from the hamlet of Lipie at its northern foot — a small settlement belonging to Sucha Beskidzka that lent this peaceful peak its quietly poetic identity.
