About the Resort
Welcome to Szczyrk Mountain Resort – the largest ski resort in Poland
Szczyrk Mountain Resort - a modern ski resort in the Beskids
Szczyrk Mountain Resort is one of the largest ski resorts in Poland, located in the picturesque Silesian Beskids, on the slopes of Małe Skrzyczne (1,211 m above sea level) and Wierch Pośredni (1,000 m above sea level). It is an ideal destination for a winter getaway, attracting visitors from the Silesian and Lesser Poland regions, as well as tourists from the Czech Republic, Slovakia and other parts of Poland.
Skiers and snowboarders can enjoy over 20 km of varied ski slopes, including 4 km of floodlit runs, allowing them to make the most of winter activities after dark. With slopes of varying difficulty, the resort offers something for everyone – from beginners taking their first turns on skis to experienced skiers looking for a sporting challenge.
Thanks to cooperation with the Central Sports Centre (COS) in Szczyrk and Beskid Sport Arena, visitors can enjoy a shared ski pass covering nearly 40 km of ski slopes. This means even more opportunities to explore the Beskids on two skis.
Modern Infrastructure and Comfortable Skiing
Szczyrk Mountain Resort has undergone extensive modernisation, making it one of the most advanced ski resorts in Poland. Its infrastructure includes a 10-person gondola lift and three 6-person chairlifts, providing convenient access to the mountain slopes. A particular advantage for beginners is the chairlift to Zbójnicka Kopa, which offers easy access to a gentler ski run.
The extensive infrastructure also provides a ski connection to the slopes of the Central Sports Centre (COS) on Skrzyczne, allowing visitors to make even better use of Szczyrk’s skiing potential.
The resort is also equipped with a modern snowmaking system supplied by a reservoir with a capacity of 100,000 m³ at Hala Skrzyczeńska. The system includes hundreds of snowmaking lances and snow cannons, helping to prepare the slopes and maintain good skiing conditions throughout the winter season.
Szczyrk Mountain Resort combines spectacular mountain scenery, modern lifts, varied ski runs and a wide range of winter activities - making it an ideal destination for a family holiday, a weekend on the slopes or a longer stay in the Beskids.
The Winter Heart of the Beskids!
Szczyrk-Gondola is the main hub of the resort, located at the lower station of the 10-person gondola lift (53B Salmopolska Street). The multifunctional building houses ticket offices, an information centre, a ski and snowboard rental shop, ski storage, a ski service and a shop. Guests also have access to a car park with space for approximately 500 vehicles, as well as dining venues including Apres Ski Gondola and Chill Bar pod Gondolą. The Szczyrk Ski School office is also located here, where visitors can book ski and snowboard lessons.
Discover the Slopes of the Beskids!
The 10-person gondola lift takes skiers directly to Hala Skrzyczeńska (1,000 m above sea level), where they can access slopes leading towards Solisko and Wierch Pośredni, as well as Zbójnicka Kopa and Małe Skrzyczne.
While at Hala Skrzyczeńska, be sure to visit Kuflonka restaurant. Delicious food, a relaxing break and spectacular views from the terrace make it the perfect place to recharge your batteries between runs.
Hala Skrzyczeńska is also home to a new attraction for the 2026/27 season: Salamandra Alpine Coaster - a modern alpine coaster that promises an extra dose of adrenaline, even in winter. It is a great way to add variety to your day on the slopes and admire the Beskids from a different perspective.
Learn to Ski at Every Level!
Szczyrk Mountain Resort is also an excellent place to learn to ski or snowboard. It is home to Szczyrk Ski School, the largest ski school in the Beskids, offering lessons for children and adults, from complete beginners taking their first turns on the slopes to those looking to refine their skills.
The school has two dedicated training areas. The first is MAXILAND, a specially designed area for beginner skiers, including the youngest snow sports enthusiasts, who can join the "Max the Teddy Bear" Academy. The second training area covers the resort's main slopes, where skiers can improve their technique and develop new skills in authentic mountain conditions.
Summer in the Heart of the Beskids!
In summer, Szczyrk Mountain Resort transforms into a destination full of mountain biking thrills, spectacular mountain views and attractions for the whole family. The resort’s summer story began in 2018, when the gondola lift first started operating outside the winter season, opening up access to the Beskids’ hiking trails, including routes towards Skrzyczne and Malinowska Skała.
The next step in developing the resort’s summer offering was the construction of enduro mountain biking trails, which began in spring 2019. This marked the beginning of the complex now known as Szczyrk Bike Park by TREK. Riders can enjoy 16 km of downhill trails of varying difficulty, catering to both experienced riders and those just starting their mountain biking journey. Convenient lift access takes riders straight to the trailheads, eliminating the need to pedal uphill. The offer is complemented by coaching sessions at Szczyrk Bike Academy by TREK, bike rentals at the TREK Test Centre and the Shop by the Gondola.
Summer adventures are made easier thanks to modern lifts - a 10-person gondola and a 6-person chairlift to Zbójnicka Kopa, offering scenic panoramic views of the Beskids along the way. The surrounding area also features mountain hiking trails, making the resort an excellent base for actively exploring the region.
In summer, the heart of the resort beats at Hala Skrzyczeńska, at an altitude of 1,000 metres above sea level. This is where attractions for visitors of all ages await. At the terrace of Kuflonka restaurant, you can enjoy a delicious meal while admiring the spectacular views of the Beskids, while the latest attraction, Salamandra Alpine Coaster, delivers an exhilarating dose of adrenaline. For a moment of relaxation and family fun, head to the Chill&Fun Zone.
Szczyrk Mountain Resort is the perfect place to combine outdoor adventures on mountain trails with relaxation, breathtaking views and summer attractions for the whole family!
