The Równia pod Śnieżką ([ˈruvɲa pɔt ˈɕɲɛʂkɔw̃], Czech: Rovina pod Sněžkou, [ˈrovɪna pot ˈsɲɛʃkou]; lit. 'Sněžka Plateau') is a subalpine plateau in the Giant Mountains of Poland and the Czech Republic.
The plateau is situated west from the peak of Sněžka, between the mountains of Smogornia and Sněžka at 1,390–1,446 m above sea level. Its area is approximately 9 km2, mostly covered in bogs, marshes and clumps of mountain pine. From both the Polish and Czech sides, the plateau is limited by glacial cirques.
