A forested hill 662 m above sea level in the Karkonosze Foothills near Szklarska Poręba, named after a former potash works for glassworks.
Warzelnia is a hill in the Karkonosze (Giant Mountains), in the Karkonosze Foothills range, within the town of Szklarska Poręba. The summit reaches 662 metres above sea level.
The name comes from a former settlement whose inhabitants produced potash for the nearby glassworks in the 17th and 18th centuries. The hill's German name was Sieberhübel.
The hill is built of Karkonosze granite. The summit is covered with forest, lower down meadows stretch out, and further below still stand buildings.
About 70 metres north-west of the summit, along 1 Maja street, runs the Around Szklarska Poręba walking trail.
