What to do with children in Szczyrk?

Attractions 29 March 202224 November 2023

Szczyrk’s unique attractions are simply inscribed in its location as a mountain resort – the numerous trails leading to mountain peaks make it one of the most visited places in the entire Silesian Beskid. However, this is just the beginning of vacation ideas that will steal the hearts of the most demanding tourists, namely children. The charming town and its surroundings offer a range of entertainment for every season. Therefore, we suggest how to spend a successful family vacation in this mountain area!

By cable car to Skrzyczne

If you are going to Szczyrk with your child, be sure to go to Skrzyczne, the highest peak of Beskid Slaski at 1257 m above sea level. Comfortable entry for the whole family is possible thanks to the cable car, which is one of the town’s biggest tourist attractions. The lower station of the cable car is located at 45 Myśliwska St. This modern cable car consists of two separate sections. The first (1592 m long) is a lift carrying tourists in two-person couches to the Jaworzyna Hall, where you can make a shortstop. The second section (1181 m) reaches almost the very top of the mountain. The whole trip takes 30 minutes. From the slopes of Skrzyczne, there is a beautiful view of the surrounding peaks, which will delight children and parents. In a few minutes from the upper station, you will reach the Skrzyczne mountain hostel.

Adventures on the trail

The Silesian Beskid is a fascinating region that is worth discovering while hiking. Szczyrk and the nearby towns and villages are famous for their picturesque hiking trails, offering magnificent views and natural abundance.

Ready for an adventure together? We recommend the best routes for families with children – picturesque, not too demanding, and perfect for any season of the year. The family trip to Klimczok, which you can start from the center of Szczyrk and continue along the blue trail, will be long remembered by children. The road to the top will not tire the young hikers too much, and the beautiful views from the top will be the best reward. You can have a meal on the way in a hut serving traditional home cuisine. You can also buy souvenirs for your children on site.

Skalite Ski Jumps Complex

A place you should not miss in your stay with children in Szczyrk is the Skalite ski jumping complex. The maximum length of jumps that could initially be achieved on this hill was about 40 m. The most significant modernization of the complex took place in 2007-2008 when a modern ski-jumping complex was built – from the largest with a construction point of K-95, the middle K-70, to the smallest K-40. Polish championships in ski-jumping and Nordic combined, as well as prestigious international competitions in ski-jumping, are organized here. On the ski jumps, both in winter and summer, training of the Polish ski jumping team is held regularly.

Rope Park BeskidPark

Another attraction in Szczyrk, this time for young adrenaline fans, is the BeskidPark. Great fun for the whole family, guaranteed! There are two routes – Mini Park and Adventure. Mini Park is for the youngest thrill-seekers and includes attractions such as ramps, a climbing wall, rope balancers, bridges, a slide and a conveyor belt. The Mini Park can be safely used by children from 3 to 13 years old. For more experienced toddlers, we recommend the Adventure Trail, where the various points, including bridges, peaks, ramps, footbridges and balance boards, are located slightly higher, which guarantees an enormous adrenaline rush and a lot of fun. The Adventure Trail is open to ages 8 and up.

Horse riding

Does your child love animals, especially horses? Or maybe you just want to start the adventure with horse riding? Then be sure to visit Eliksir Stables, picturesquely located at the foot of the Skalite and Skrzyczne mountains. In such beautiful natural surroundings, unforgettable attractions await the youngest holidaymakers – pony riding and for the slightly older ones – horseback riding on a lunge.

A successful stay with children in Szczyrk – stay at the Przystanek Góry!

Szczyrk is especially popular among families with children. Not without reason. Many local attractions and leisure activities ensure a successful stay for the whole family. After a day filled with entertainment on and off the trail, you will rest comfortably in our Przystanek Góry. We invite you to take advantage of our offer of accommodation with breakfast!

Spring regeneration – how to keep fit?

Attractions 24 February 202224 November 2023

Winter is usually a time of reduced activity and more frequent infections. Changeable weather conditions, quickly falling dusk and less sunlight result in longer sitting indoors instead of outdoors. For this reason, many of us are so excited about the prospect of the approaching spring. How to prepare for the new season? What will promote the regeneration of our vital and mental forces? You will read about this in the article.

How to take care of your form in the spring? Discover 5 proven methods!

1. Take care of mental and physical health

The upcoming spring and waking nature can ideally “recharge” our internal batteries. However, to take advantage of the changes taking place, we must first take care of our own health. For this purpose, it is worth doing some essential examinations to ensure that we are ready for more activity. We should also take care of work-life balance, properly balancing the time spent on work and rest. Finally, we must remember that stress is our enemy and always has a negative impact on our health.

2. Remember about balanced diet and hydration

Although sometimes we think that the commonly known saying “you are what you eat” is an overused platitude, it turns out to be very accurate in practice. To regenerate your body after winter and gain energy, you need a proper diet. So make sure that before the arrival of spring on your plate, every day there are vegetables and fruits. Avoid too much theine and caffeine, and drink at least two liters of water instead. Minimize sugar and salt in your diet, instead opt for natural juices, which are a source of vitamins.

3. Take care to relax

Various relaxation treatments also have a beneficial effect on the regeneration of your body. Meditation, yoga, breathing exercises, massages – there are many possibilities. Find time for activities that give you joy and allow you to forget about the hardships of a busy life. A good book, going to the pool, meeting friends will undoubtedly enable you to look at the world around you with optimism.

4. Opt for a detox

Spring regeneration will take place faster if we take care of a detox. Processed food, sweets and lack of exercise slow down our metabolism. Then we feel constantly tired, lack energy and find it difficult to greet each new day. This trend can be reversed by periodic fasting, juice detox or sauna.

5. Be active

Another proven way of spring regeneration is activity. We recommend first of all the outdoor activity. A walk after a hard day’s work will soothe your nerves and allow you to relax. A weekend trip outside the city or to the mountains will achieve even better results.

For those who want to rest close to nature, we recommend activity on the Beskid trails. There is no shortage of them in Szczyrk and its surroundings, and the difficulty of the routes can be gradually increased, at the same time communing with the awakening nature. After the activity, we invite you to relax in the Przystanek Góry, which offers comfortably equipped rooms with bathrooms, provides delicious breakfasts based on regional specialties and offers guests a garden with many attractions. You can be sure that time spent in such a way will foster regeneration and make our bodies ready for the arrival of spring.

Women’s Day at the Przystanek Góry

Attractions 7 February 202224 November 2023

Although many ladies associate March 8 mainly with carnations and tights, there are much better ways to celebrate this special day. After all, Women’s Day is a special occasion that allows women to show their essential role in society. Therefore, we would also like to join in celebrating this holiday. On this occasion, we have prepared lots of attractions for you at the Przystanek Góry!

Women’s Day in the past and today

Did you know that Women’s Day can be regarded as the prototype of Matronalia celebrated in ancient Rome on March 1? On that day, women dressed in festive robes went to the grove located by the temple of Juno on the Esquiline. They offered flowers and incense to the goddess of birth, motherhood and women. They prayed for happiness in married life and the miracle of birth. During Matronalia, men also presented their wives with gifts.

In modern times, Women’s Day was first celebrated on February 20, 1909, in the United States. Interestingly, it was not until a year later that German socialist Klara Zetkin contributed to International Women’s Day’s actual initiation and approval. Women’s Day was established by a resolution of the International Congress of Socialist Women held in Copenhagen on August 26-28, 1910. More than 100 women from 17 countries participated in the conference. According to the resolutions, this day was to be celebrated internationally and served the development of respect for women’s rights and to build public support for women’s universal suffrage.

This idea was received quite positively. In Austria, Denmark, Germany, and Switzerland, Women’s Day was celebrated for the first time on March 19, 1911. Demonstrations and gatherings took place then and continued throughout the following years in different parts of the world. In Poland, the celebration of Women’s Day was not appreciated until after World War II. It became trendy during the communist era. In 1993 the official celebration of this day was abolished by Hanna Suchocka.

Women’s Day – the best gifts for women

Today Women’s Day can be celebrated in many ways. It can be a small gift, a romantic dinner, going to the cinema or relieving from household duties. An exciting gift on this occasion is also a trip with friends combined with attractions. At the Przystanek Góry, we have chosen just such an option!

Today, we invite you to join the “Kobiety Górą” event, which we are organizing on 11-13 March 2022. During the meeting, we will make sure that after receiving a decent dose of positive energy and power to act, each of the women will have the strength to look “up” to what is going on around them and think about what else should be done to feel better every day than before.

A stay at the Przystanek Góry will allow us to take care of our body and mind. We will be accompanied by extraordinary ladies – Natalia, a guide, who will take care of our soul and mind, Ania, a specialist in massages and body care, and Kinga, who will tell us a few tricks how to take care of our face and do a quick, but effective make-up.

We hope that Women’s Day celebrated in such a way will long be remembered by all the ladies and bring many positive emotions. We will also organize other women’s meetings- in the end, Women’s Day can last all year round!

Due to the limited number of seats and high interest, please make reservations by phone: +48 508-985-407 or by e-mail: kontakt@przystanekgory.pl

Ski touring – why try this winter sport?

Attractions 21 January 202224 November 2023

An alternative to classic skis and snowboarding, an excellent substitute for hiking in winter, is how to ski touring can be briefly described. Known for many years and now popular again, ski touring is a perfect option for those who already practice winter sports and people who love hiking in the mountains. So why should you start your adventure with ski touring? Here are some reasons and solutions to make it easier.

Choose your favourite routes – check out the possibilities of ski touring

Thanks to its specific construction, touring skis offer more possibilities than their counterparts from the slopes. Thanks to its particular structure, it allows you not only to ski downhill or move on flat terrain. They also allow climbing and moving on a challenging route with different snow thicknesses.

They are also distinguished by their weight. They are lightweight and durable. An essential element of the touring skis is the seals – a material piece attached to the ski slope, which provides an excellent grip even in difficult terrain. It is interesting to note that seals were made of animal skin in ancient times, which is how they got their name. In addition, this type of ski has flexible bindings that allow you to change the position of your foot.

Where to start your skiing adventure?

Ski touring is ideal for those who already do winter sports and for laymen looking for an activity for the colder months. No matter how advanced you are, it’s a good idea to start by taking an instructor-led course to learn the proper technique, how to ski correctly, and how to cope with changing terrain.
If you are still unsure whether this sport is for you, it is worth renting equipment. In Szczyrk alone, within a few kilometres from Przystanek Góry, at least two rental companies offer this type of skiing.

The Beskids – a combination of close proximity to nature and interesting skit routes

Picturesque terrains and, at the same time, a good base of rental shops and courses run in the region make the Silesian Beskids a good destination for those who want to try this sport. In addition, ski touring fans often use charming places that are also familiar to them from their mountain hiking trips.
In the close proximity of the Przystanek Góry, there is, among others, a route dedicated to fans of ski touring leading to Skrzyczne. In the area, fans of this type of skiing have a chance to see Malinowska Skała, try to conquer Klimczok, and even take the longer trail to the Orle Gniazdo. Before the trip, it is worth talking to an instructor or checking out popular routes on the Traseo portal. This way, we can choose the optimal activity variant – adjusted to our skills and condition. You will have a chance to see many picturesque places inaccessible to those who ski on traditional slopes. Although this sport requires physical stamina due to the need to climb the peaks on your own, the effort is compensated by adrenaline and the possibility of close contact with nature. We invite you to see for yourself how rich the offer for active winter tourists is in Szczyrk. We will take care of your regeneration and rest after skiing in Przystanek Góry!

New Year’s tourist resolutions with Przystanek Góry

Attractions 9 January 202224 November 2023

New year, new us? With the change of date on the calendar, many of us resolve to change something in our lives. As we enter 2022 with energy, we complete a list of things to do and habits to implement. While planning future achievements thinking about the goals we will set for ourselves, it is worth remembering the most important ones – health and well-being. So how to take care of them? The solution is to implement!

It’s time to take care of your condition – the first resolution for 2022

Ten thousand steps a day, stretching or a short exercise session every day – this is the recommended minimum activity we should take care of. After all, regular exercise is the key to staying healthy, positively influencing immunity, and feeling better.
However, apart from daily habits, which are the basis of a good lifestyle, it is worth implementing one more – cyclical, active rest outdoors. More excellent care for health can be combined with another resolution. The one which concerns exploring picturesque places in Poland. Tourism is the key to achieving these goals, and at the same time to having fun and genuinely relaxing.

Beskids – a place for those who like activity

For many, winter weather is an obstacle to getting active. You could be wrong! It is a great time to try new sports – skiing, snowboarding or popular ski-touring. Suitable infrastructure for each activity can be found in and around Szczyrk. An additional asset of this place is fabulous winter views.
On the other hand, in spring and summer, you can take care of your condition by going for a walk or Nordic walking. Of course, there is nothing to prevent short hikes from turning into mountain expeditions. The picturesque Silesian Beskid will be a good destination for beginners and entire families. Full of exciting routes and trails of varying degrees of difficulty, it will undoubtedly help you cherish your New Year’s resolutions.

Tourist plans for 2022 – how to make them come true?

Unfortunately, the initial motivation that accompanies us in January may diminish with time. But how to persevere with your travel resolutions? First of all, make it easier for yourself to fulfil them! The choice of accommodation in the Przystanek Góry will undoubtedly help you do that.
Our facility is a perfect starting point. In winter, it is easy to get to famous ski slopes such as Szczyrk Mountain Resort, the cable car in Skrzycze, or the Beskid Sport Arena located a bit farther. On the other hand, hikers will appreciate the proximity of places such as the Salmopol Pass or the peaks of Klimczok and Szyndzielnia.
After a day full of activity, our guests can relax by the fireplace, and in warmer evenings – on the terrace. Every morning we welcome you with a nutritious and delicious breakfast.
New Year’s tourist resolutions should not only be a means to an end, such as better health and well-being or seeing new places. But, they should also be fun and relaxing while putting them into practice!

Staying outdoors in the mountains – how well does it affect us?

Attractions 12 December 202124 November 2023

It has long been known that fresh air is highly beneficial to physical and mental health. It is not without reason that people eagerly seek contact with nature – especially in the mountains, which in addition to beautiful views, offer a variety of activities with diverse beneficial effects. We suggest how to take care of your health in the Beskydy Mountains!

Health benefits of staying in the mountains

Support your respiratory and circulatory system

A stay in the mountains, especially hiking, is excellent general training. While walking through the picturesque trails, our body is better oxygenated, and the blood in our veins starts circulating faster. This significantly improves the work of the breathing and blood circulation systems, which in turn has a positive effect on the lungs and heart. What is more – regular trips to the mountains reduce the risk of heart attacks, hypertension and even cancer. A vacation in the mountains is also an excellent choice for people who suffer from hyperthyroidism.

Increase immunity

In the mountains, jumps in pressure and temperature mobilize our body to adapt to demanding conditions. Exercise in nature combined with breathing fresh air makes us less susceptible to disease. More excellent immunity will come in handy, especially during the autumn and winter cold season.

Just relax

As numerous studies show, staying in the mountains can also effectively reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. The proximity of nature has even a therapeutic effect – more or less intensive hikes will allow us to forget about our daily duties and fully relax.

Not only hiking – how to take care of your health in the mountains?

The mountains are conducive to various activities that can have a beneficial effect on our body and soul. In addition to hiking on the Beskid trails, to which we invite you, we also recommend other ways to take care of your health.

Walking on snow

Guests of the Przystanek Góry, who will stay with us in the winter, are encouraged to… walk on snow in our extensive garden surrounded by mountains! Walking barefoot in the white powder, we will effectively relax, which will make it easier to fall asleep and guarantee a better quality of sleep. Proper regeneration through the night will give us an extra boost of energy. With time, feet, equipped with more than 70 thousand nerve endings, get used to low temperatures. Therefore, walking on snow in winter is a great way to toughen up our body, thanks to which it will be more effective against viruses and bacteria. This is not the end of the benefits – the contact of bare feet with cold snow can also help us fight inflammation and reduce tension. To get you started, we recommend short, approximately 30-second sessions, which you can increase to several minutes each time.

Breathing exercises

Another of our suggestions are breathing exercises performed in the mountains. Wim Hof’s recommended method combines three elements: breathing, exposure to cold and meditation, aimed at improving overall health and well-being. Conscious, properly guided breathing makes our tissues, organs and cells better supplied with blood, oxygen and nutrients. The second component of the method – low temperature – hardens the body, improves metabolism and removes inflammation. As recommended by the “Ice Man,” exposure to cold can include cold showers or walks in icy water. The latter is favored by mountain streams, which await winter vacationers in the Beskydy Mountains. On the other hand, meditation is nothing more than a complete focus on your inner self. As scientists have proven, people who use Wim Hof’s methods have a more robust immune response to diseases, enjoy better mental clarity and concentration, and sleep better and have more life energy.

Winter swimming in a stream

Our list closes with an activity that has gained popularity in recent years. Winter bathing that immerses the body in ice-cold water. The list of advantages it brings is really long. Increasing immunity, improving efficiency and circulation or supporting faster regeneration are only some of them. Bathing in cold water also reduces pain in the joints and stimulates calorie burning. Winter in the mountains offers plenty of opportunities. For those who are not afraid of low temperatures, we recommend the Beskid streams.

How to strengthen immunity in autumn?

Attractions 19 October 202124 November 2023

Autumn is a highly demanding time for our bodies. Low temperatures are often the cause of colds. However, the risk of catching them can be minimized by applying a few simple rules. We suggest how to strengthen your immunity and how not to get sick in the autumn period!

Eat healthily

One of the key ways to build up immunity is a healthy, well-balanced and nutrient-rich diet. Vitamin C, which is responsible for producing immunoglobulins that fight infections, is essential in the autumn. Therefore, the autumn menu must not lack products rich in vitamin C, especially citrus fruit and juices from raspberries, chokeberries and black currant. In turn, the source of vitamin A, which protects the mucous membranes of the respiratory system against the penetration of bacteria and viruses, are green, yellow and orange vegetables, egg yolks and dairy products. The autumn diet should be enriched with garlic – it is a source of many vitamins and minerals, and honey, which provides valuable microelements and antibacterial effects. In autumn, we should also bet on warm soups, which perfectly warm up the body from the inside and thus boost its immunity. Finally, do not forget to drink at least 1.5 litres of water every day, which cleanses the body of dangerous toxins.

Take care of your sleep

A balanced diet is not everything. Remember that a well-rested body is less susceptible to various infections. Therefore, in autumn, we should take care of the quality of our sleep – an appropriate amount of it is crucial for the proper functioning of the immune system. Numerous studies show that sleeping less than 6 hours increases the risk of catching an infection many times. Therefore, apart from the length of sleep, you should take care of its hours. It’s good when they are constant because irregular daily rhythm is also not conducive to fighting viruses.

Be active and exercise

It has been known for a long time that movement is good for health. So with the coming of autumn, we should not give up physical activity. Quite the opposite – it is at this time that we should remember regular exercises that will allow us to toughen up our body, and thus protect it against disease. Walks, gym, swimming pool, gymnastics at home – regardless of the form of activity, it should be repeated at least 3 times a week to support the operation of the immune system. Mountain hiking in the autumn is also a great idea. It strengthens the joints and muscles, increases lung capacity and effectively hardens the body.

Avoid stress

Stress, which accompanies each of us to a greater or lesser degree, hurts immunity. In stressful situations, cortisol is secreted, which reduces the number of lymphocytes and weakens the immune system. Disturbed in stressful moments, the flora of the digestive system, in turn, makes it easier for various microorganisms to develop in it, which may contribute to the occurrence of infections. Therefore, different relaxation exercises, perfect for calming and calming down, will be beneficial to achieve autumn balance.

Plan your autumn in the Przystanek Góry

Do you want to strengthen your immunity for autumn? Enjoy an active, regenerative stay at the Przystanek Góry in Szczyrk! Pleasant temperatures, lack of crowds and beautiful scenery are conducive to recharging internal batteries. Moreover, the mountain trails waiting in the area are the perfect place to toughen up the immune system for the demanding time ahead.
