Kleť () is a mountain in the Bohemian Forest Foothills in the South Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. It rises above sea level.
==Etymology== The name Kleť, also written as Klaď, was first documented in 1263. The origin of the name is unsure. It could be derived from the Old Czech word kleť (meaning 'hut') or from the Old Czech word klaď (meaning 'spike', 'tip'). There is also a romantic theory that the name is derived from the word kletá ('cursed'). The German name Schöninger, Czechized as Šenýgl, was formerly also used for the mountain simultaneously.
