Hrubý Jeseník

Hrubý Jeseník (German: Altvatergebirge/Hohes Gesenke, Polish: Jesionik Wysoki, English: High Ash Mountains) is a mountain range of Eastern Sudetes in northern Moravia and Czech Silesia. It is the second highest mountain range in the Czech Republic.

Some of the most interesting sights:

• Praděd, the highest mountain
• Powerful pumped storage plant Dlouhé stráně
• Natural reserve Rejvíz with moss lakes
• The town of Jeseník - Priessnitz spa (from strictly geomorphic point of view Jeseník lies in a valley which is an extension of Opawskie Mountains (Zlatohorská vrchovina) but being partially surrounded by Hrubý Jeseník the town is commonly associated with it)
• Devil Stones (Čertovy kameny), Peter's Stones (Petrovy kameny)
