Gypsy Forest Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Cygański Forest is a remnant of an old forest stretching from Mikuszowice to Kamienica. It was mentioned in a document from 1312, in which Mieszko of Cieszyn grants the forest to the citizens of Bielsko. This document is the oldest written mention of the city of Bielsko.

View of Bielsko-Biała from Dębowiec Hill

Highlight • Viewpoint

Quite a nice view of the city, the ascent from the Dolina Wapienicy side is not too demanding or long.

Gondola Trailhead (Enduro Trails Bielsko-Biała)

Highlight • MTB Park

A fast and smooth route in the upper part (be careful about crossing the trails at the beginning!) with interesting stream crossings in the lower part (you may get splashed). It starts at the Dylówki pass (about an hour's drive from Błonia) and ends at the lower station of the Gondola lift. The route requires a wide range of skills and great bike control (e.g. the ability to quickly downshift before a short uphill climb or quickly brake before a tight corner).

Szyndzielnia PTTK Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Slightly hidden hut, but a good resting place. Coming from below, the hut is easy to reach, but if you want to continue, it becomes strenuous and technically uphill.
