A wonderful mountain trail with fantastic views of Śnieżka. An extraordinary experience. But remember to exercise caution here. These are real mountains.

Beautiful hiking trail up to the Snezka. I really enjoyed it.

The Snow Pits (Polish: Śnieżne Kotły) in the Giant Mountains are an impressive natural wonder that delights both hikers and nature lovers. They consist of two glacial cirques, the Great Snow Pit (Wielki Kocioł Śnieżny) and the Small Snow Pit (Mały Kocioł Śnieżny), located at an altitude of approximately 1,200 to 1,300 meters. These steep and deep rock faces were formed by glaciers and provide a breathtaking backdrop. The walls of the Snow Pits drop almost vertically to a height of up to 100 meters, making them one of the most spectacular places in the Giant Mountains. Rare flora and fauna: Due to the special microclimate, plant species normally found only in arctic regions thrive here. On the ridge above the Snow Pits stands the historic Snow Pit Hut (Polish: Schronisko na Śnieżnych Kotłach), a building that formerly served as a meteorological station.

The origins of this building date back to 1835, when the first youth hostel was founded here on the initiative of Count Schaffgotsch at the beginning of tourism in the Giant Mountains.

It used to be a building, but today Polish television has taken it over.

The sound of the water is a constant companion and is simply beautiful.

I recommend walking towards the center of town either very early or later. Not on holidays or weekends. It's super crowded. You feel like you’ve been “swept through”. You rarely meet hikers - more like “city hikers”. Czech side much more relaxed

Below the Zackel Falls, the Kamienczyk (in German Steinbach, popularly called Zackele) has dug deep into the rock. The vertical rock walls rise more than 30 meters above the stream. In some places the gorge is only 4 meters wide. If you pay the entrance fee, you will be equipped with a helmet to protect against falling rocks and can enter the gorge. He can see the waterfall from below.
