Geology
Short characteristics of the site:
Outlook tower overlooks outcrops of muskovite and two-mica schists. Because of presence of nearby granite the schists contain cirdierie and thus are contactly metamorphosed. Just at a foot of the outlook tower there occur fractured and banded muscovitic orthogneisses. The locality is situated in the Krkonoše-Jizera Crystalline zone.
