On this full-day excursion, youâll visit the Karkonosze Mountains, also known as the Giant Mountains, and the fascinating Valley of Palaces and Gardens with unique 19th-century mansions. Most of the sites are situated at the foot of the largest mountain range in the Sudetes.
The scenic route takes you from WrocĆaw to the extraordinary 14th-century Siedlecin Tower House. Admire one of the most outstanding examples of medieval art: see the 14th-century polychromes that portray scenes from the Arthurian legends of Lancelot. The next stop is a late baroque palace in Staniszow where you'll sample the herbal liqueur Echt Stonsdorfer (not included in the price).
From here, travel to Karpacz, one of the most popular mountain resorts, situated directly at the foot of the Karkonosze range. You'll visit the Vang Stave church, considered to be the oldest wooden church in Poland. Have lunch in a typical local mountain restaurant, where you can feel the presence of a legendary Sudets creature - the Rubezahl also known as the Moutain Spirit. Afterward, go back to your accommodation in Wroclaw.
