Śnieżne Kotły

The walls of both cirques are about 100 metres (330 ft) high and contain small tarn lakes.

However, in two exposed places basalt was found (apparently of volcanic origin), which is quite rare in this part of Central Europe.

[1] Some rare species of arctic and alpine plants appear in the cold and dark parts of the cirques:[2] Pulsatilla alpina, Gentiana asclepiadea, Aconitum napellus,[3] and the only place in the Sudetes where Micranthes nivalis appears.

[1] At the top of the larger cirque, at the Łabski Szczyt, there is a radio and television tower.

Also, a yellow trail from the mountain hut under the Łabski Peak (Polish: Schronisko pod Łabskim Szczytem) leads to the top of the cirques.
