Łomnicka Równia

Łomnicka Równia is a peak 898 metres above sea level, the highest in the northern part of the Bystrzyckie Mountains, in the Central Sudetes, in Kłodzko County.

Structure and relief

The hill is the culmination of a long ridge running along the north-eastern edge of the range's plateau. On this side it drops in a steep tectonic fault down to the Upper Nysa Trench. It is built of crystalline schists and granite gneisses.

Vegetation

The summit is covered almost entirely by artificial spruce monocultures, cut through by numerous clearings.
