Hiking Trails in Szczyrk

Your mountain adventure in Szczyrk

Szczyrk lies in the Żylica Valley (Dolina Żylicy) between the Klimczok Range (Pasmo Klimczoka) and the Skrzyczne Massif (Masyw Skrzycznego) in the Silesian Beskids (Beskid Śląski). In such a richness of mountain peaks, a whole myriad of kilometre-long hiking and forest trails can be found. If you need suggestions and advice, there you are. Below, we’ve gathered a few nice trip ideas which you could find quite appealing, indeed. Their starting point is usually a street, a car park or a bus stop, so you can reach them both by car and using public transport means.

At the lower station of the gondola lift in Szczyrk, 53B Salmopolska Street, there is a large car park. You can leave your vehicle here free of charge and set off on your mountain trip. Here’s where the yellow trail towards the Little Skrzyczne (Małe Skrzyczne) begins. You can skip this part by reaching the peak by the gondola and chairlift. Then, proceed with your excursion.
