Marciniec

Marciniec is a small massif with a summit 624 metres high in the northern part of the Eastern Ridge of the Kaczawa Mountains, in the Sudetes, east of Wojcieszów. It lies on the ridge running from Bukowinka through Rogacz, Dłużek and Chmielarz towards Wojcieszów.

Composition and vegetation

The massif is built of old, Palaeozoic metamorphic rocks: volcanic greenstones and greenstone schists, and sedimentary phyllites, albite-sericite and quartz-sericite schists with graphite, known as Radzimowice schists. These rocks form part of the Kaczawa metamorphic complex. The whole massif is covered by spruce forest.
