Ostrzyca Proboszczowicka

Ostrzyca is a forested conical hill in southwestern Poland. Rising 501 metres above the Kaczawskie Foothills, it is a volcanic plug formed during the Neogene period, featuring distinctive hexagonal columnar jointing in its basanite rock. The hill is protected within the Ostrzyca Proboszczowicka nature reserve, established in 1962 to preserve its unique flora and geological features. Ostrzyca serves as a key geopoint in the Land of Extinct Volcanoes Geopark, providing educational opportunities about volcanic processes and geomorphology.
