Bardzkie Mountains

The Bardzkie Mountains () are a mountain range in the Sudetes in south-western Poland. The official toponym is recorded in Poland’s national register of geographical names (PRNG).

The highest point is generally given as Szeroka Góra (about 766 m), while the neighbouring Wapniarka (757 m) is the best-known summit and features a 34.5 m observation tower (built in 2020).

Geography

The range is centred on the valley of the Nysa Kłodzka and is commonly associated with the scenic river gorge near the town of Bardo.

A standard reference work for the physical geography and toponymy of the Sudetes treats the Bardzkie Mountains as a distinct unit within the Central Sudetes.

Nature protection

Parts of the range are included in the EU Natura 2000 network as the special area of conservation Góry Bardzkie (PLH020062). The site is designated in Polish law by a regulation of the Minister of Climate and Environment published in the official Journal of Laws (Dziennik Ustaw).

Protected areas and forms of nature protection within state forests managed locally are listed by the State Forests District (Nadleśnictwo Bardo Śląskie).
