Beskidy Mala Czantoria

The Czantoria mountain range is located in the northern part of the Silesian Beskidy. Is it a very accessible place for the big con urban area of Silesia (Katowice and surroundings). It can be very crowed on a good weather day, but there are so many routes and ways to be discovered that you can also find peace somewhere.

Just after passing the thermal city of Ustron on the way to Wisla, you should leave the main road to the right on the street Akacjowa. This small road takes you to Poniwiec ski resort. You can park the car anywhere along the road depending how long you want to go with your hike.

We climbed the small Czantoria mountain which offers you great views all the silesian plain.

We would like to thank our Silesian friends who guided us till the summit, unfortunately I had to take a plane back work.

Therefore we got to improvise the way back to the starting point. We found a very used forestry road which bring us again to the valley.

Running Lowlands Gliwice

The south of Poland is occupied by a mountainous terrain where the rivers grow. As soon as the rivers leave the steep valleys begins a part of the big north European plain also named the lowlands.

The Eurpoean plain is also a very interesting place for outdoors activities. It is difficult to be on the top of hill as the king of the landscap. As i am not use to the lowlands terrain I consider the orientation sometimes a little bit more confusing that in the mountains.

You can get easily confused in the forest losing the north but hopefully with the tracks I include the path will be more clear.

The tracks included start all in the north part of Gliwice (Silesia) where you can spend a nice jogging or hiking. 10 KM TRACK
