Śląskie Kamienie or Dívčí kameny ("Silesian Rocks" or "Maiden Rocks"), 1,413 metres (4,636 ft) and Czeskie Kamienie or Mužské kameny ("Czech Rocks" or "Man Rocks" in Polish and Czech respectively), 1,416 metres (4,646 ft) is a twin peak and a rock formation situated in the western part of Karkonosze on Polish and Czech border within the Karkonosze National Park on the Polish–Czech Friendship Trail. The rocks are up to 8 m high[1].

Location

The twin peak is located in the main ridge, between Śmielec and the Przełęcz Karkonoska. The border straddles the peak. A stone monument reminds the tragedy of the Czech journalist Rudolf Kalman, who died here during a snow storm on 14 January 1929[2].
