Geography
Pisztyk is located in Kłodzko County in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship, near the town of Nowa Ruda. The mountain forms part of the central section of the Włodzickie Hills, a range of rounded hills situated between the Owl Mountains and the Table Mountains within the Sudetes.[1]
The summit lies near the village of Włodowice and rises above the upper basin of the Włodzica River. Nearby summits include Pardelówka and Krępiec.[2]
The slopes of Pisztyk are largely forested, with mixed woodland typical of the Sudetes. Forest roads and local hiking paths lead through the surrounding hills and connect with marked tourist routes in the region.[2]
