Photo Gallery » Szczeliniec - attractions of the Table Mountains
This is an idea for an interesting day in the Stołowe Mountains: a trip from Karłowo to Szczeliniec Wielki (919 m), a tour of the reserve, and then a trail around Szczeliniec Mały (895 m) to Pasterka and return to Karłów. The trail is not long (less than 9 km) and it is not difficult (405 m level differences up and down) but it is very interesting and attractive. There are mountain huts on Szczeliniec Wielki and in Pasterka, so you can drink or eat something.

We stayed here:
ul. Górska 2
57-320 Polanica-Zdrój, Poland
Polanica-Zdrój is a small health resort near the Stołowe Mountains and Bystrzyckie Mountains, only 10 km from Kłodzko, less than 25 km from the ski station in Zieleniec and about 35 km from the Czarna Góra ski resort. We like to come back to this area because the Kłodzko Land is beautiful and very interesting. You can walk in the mountains and ski in the winter. You can enter a cave or a gold or uranium mine. You can admire architecture, cities, churches, big fortresses and mountain landscapes. Everyone will find attractions for themselves :-) This time, in September, we decided to see the Stołowe Mountains (Table Mountains) and Rock Towns in the Czech Republic.
