Szwajcarka Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The oldest building in Poland used as a shelter - wooden, in Tyrolean style, built in 1823. Beautiful shelter at an altitude of 520m above sea level, and a great place to stop. They serve food here and you can stay overnight.

Hussite Rock (Kutschenstein)

Highlight • Natural Monument

The Hussite Rock (545 m above sea level) - is an impressive granite rock with 20 m high cliffs. Although we are on a 20 m high rocky outcrop, trees obscure the view of the Jelenia Góra valley, but Sokolik Duży presents itself in all its glory.
The name "Hussite Rock" is connected with the events that took place in the nearby Sokolec Góra castle on the night of 11-12 August 1434. The Hussites, fleeing from the burning fortress, got lost here and fell on horseback straight into the abyss.

Sokolik Viewing Platform

Highlight • Viewpoint

Two rock teeth sprouting from above. A metal spiral staircase leads to the large Sokolik. Easily accessible. Kleiner Sokolik is a paradise for climbers.

Sokolec Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Right under Góra Krzyżna there are benches and a place to rest, and this is where the remains of the old Sokolec Castle are hidden.

It is not certain who built it, but most likely Henry the Bearded in the early 13th century. The name Sokolec comes from the birds that inhabited the local rocks - then, not now. The history of this stronghold was - as is often the case - turbulent, but in the 15th century it was already said that it was ruined. The history of the castle is fascinating: I recommend reading more here: zamkipolskie.com/sokol/sokol.html

If you look closely at the rocks, you will see quite obvious remains of the old castle walls.

A cross has been installed on Krzyżna Góra in Rudawy Janowickie. The views are beautiful. The entire Karkonosze range looks wonderful, but even the smaller hills make a big impression. Karpnickie Stawy are visible below.

Great climbing area. Famous Polish Himalayan climbers started their adventure with the highest mountains in the world here. In the Schweizerhaus I got accommodation in a room for 20 people with bunk beds without any problems and without booking. Very spartan but great. 👍
