Peak Corner (849 m above sea level)

The Table Mountains National Park was established in the Stołowe Mountains in 1993. The highest peak of the range is Szczeliniec Wielki.

The Table Mountains owe their name to their specific structure, the shape of which is similar to the flat surface of the table. The current appearance of the range is due to relatively young tectonic movements and erosions that began in the Miocene and continue to this day. As a result, the upper part of the hills formed flat peaks.
