Mountain hikes – discover the beauty of the trails Are you wondering what mountain summer in Szklarska Poręba has to offer? It’s a paradise for hiking lovers, and at Five Seasons, we know routes that will take your breath away! Head to the Szklarka Waterfall trail – it’s just a 20-minute walk from the center, perfect even for the youngest, and the sound of the water and cool mist are a real reward on a hot day. If you're up for more, go to the Snowy Cirques – Karkonosze gems with a viewing point at 1490 meters above sea level, where the panorama stretches for tens of kilometers. Don’t forget comfortable shoes and water – in summer temperatures can exceed 25°C, but in the mountains, the weather can be capricious, so a light rain jacket will also come in handy. On the way, you pass old shelters, like "Under Łabski Peak," where you can rest with a cup of tea overlooking rocky ridges. It’s a way for an active day that will energize you and let you feel close to nature.

Cycling trails – adrenaline and active relaxation

Mountains in summer are a true paradise for bike enthusiasts. Cycling routes in the Karkonosze Mountains are perfectly prepared, and everyone will find something for themselves – both amateurs of peaceful rides and fans of extreme descents. You can choose gentler paths running along mountain rivers and clearings or use downhill trails that deliver a solid dose of adrenaline. Szklarska Poręba is famous for excellent conditions for mountain biking, and bike rentals offer modern equipment, so even people without their own bikes can enjoy active recreation. Mountain cycling is a great way to improve fitness and enjoy being close to nature.

Attractions for families – adventure for the little ones

Summer in the mountains is also an ideal time for family trips. Children love contact with nature and discovering new places, and Szklarska Poręba offers many attractions that children will enjoy. Rope parks, rides on mountain railways, or visits to the Forest Glassworks, where you can see how glass is made – these are just some of the proposals. It is also worth visiting Dinopark, where you can admire realistic dinosaur models and participate in educational workshops. Children under 12 stay with us for free, making a family holiday in the mountains even more attractive!
