Trzy Kopce Wiślańskie (810 m a.s.l.) is one of those peaks that quietly wins you over — modest in height, but rich in character, views, and a story rooted deep in the landscape of the Silesian Beskids. The name itself tells the tale: this double-summit ridge in the Równica Range marks the historic meeting point of three communities — Ustroń, Wisła, and Brenna — once marked with stone cairns, today commemorated by three large boulders standing on the western top.
The terrain here is quintessential Beskids — open meadows rolling northward toward the tiny settlement of Nowa Łąka, forested slopes dropping into surrounding valleys, and a ridge walk that rewards with a fine panorama. From the summit you can spot Skrzyczne (1257 m), Kotarz (974 m), Równica (884 m), Czantoria (995 m), and Orłowa. In summer the clearings are sunny and peaceful; autumn turns the beech and fir slopes into a sea of gold and copper; in winter, with snow cover, the trails attract families and casual hikers alike.
How to reach the summitThe adjective 'Wiślańskie' was deliberately added to distinguish this peak from several other 'Trzy Kopce' locations scattered across the Beskids — a reminder that boundary cairns like these were once a common way of marking the edges of highland communities.
