Location and surroundings
editKomáří hůrka lies northeast of Krupka (Graupen) and southeast of Cínovec (Böhmisch Zinnwald) immediately on the steepest section of the Ore Mountain escarpment. As a result, it is a good observation point, from which there are views in almost all directions of the compass. In addition the characteristic appearance of a fault block mountain range with its steep escarpment falling away to the south is very clearly seen from this part of the Ore Mountains.
