    Trekking to Śnieżka the highest peak of the Sudetes

    Amazing one-day trek to Śnieżka in the Sudetes mountains in Poland. You will enjoy the Śnieżka peak, which is the highest peak in South-Western Poland. This trek starts in Karpacz in the buffer zone of the Karkonosze National Park, where you will meet our team, which consists of a local guide. After greeting and checking the equipment, you will start walking with our guide towards the DOM ŚLĄSKI shelter, where if you book in advance, you can spend the night! Then you will walk uphill to the Śnieżka peak, through beautiful serpentines and views at the top, you will descend from the peak to the shelter, have lunch and then return to Karpacz. The choice of route and variant depends on the season and snow conditions and avalanche reports. Remember, Śnieżka can be a very demanding expedition. At its peak, the winds reach the highest speed in the whole of Europe. In winter, the conditions at the foot of Śnieżka are comparable to those above the Arctic Circle,
    The hiking trip can be done on foot, on skis or with the help of a chairlift.
