Standing in for the Bialskie Mountains
Rudawiec is not the highest of the Bialskie Mountains – Travna hora (1,121 m) and, on the Polish side, Postawna (1,117 m) are higher. No marked trail leads over either of them, however, so Rudawiec made it onto the Crown of Polish Mountains list.

The Sycamore Forest
The massif lies on the European watershed and is the junction of three ridges. Its northern and eastern slopes are covered by the Puszcza Jaworowa (Sycamore Forest), whose most valuable parts are protected by the Puszcza Śnieżnej Białki reserve. Czechs call the peak Polská hora, Germans – Rote Sümpfe.
