Karkonosze National Park

Poland
Someday we will visit Karkonosze National Park or begin to dream about going there! However, for now its not on our radar. Let us know in the comments if you think that should change!

Karkonosze National Park

Karkonosze National Park is a national park in the Sudetes in Dolnośląskie, Poland. It lies on the border with the Czech Republic. It was made in 1959 and covers an area of 5951 ha. The Karkonosze National Park is a very popular hiking destination among locals and foreigners alike.

The Karkonosze Mountains are the highest range of the much broader Sudetes mountains stretching horizontally from south-western Poland along the northern border of the Czech Republic to eastern Germany. Its highest peak is Śnieżka at 1,602 metres (5,256 ft) above sea level, forming a triangle with (similarly sounding) Śnieżnik, 1,424 metres (4,672 ft), as well as Ślęża peak, further apart. They are connected by a red hiking trail only for qualified tourists. The characteristic features of its landscape are the glacial kettles with boulders and ponds hidden inside. Weathered granite rocks shaped like mushrooms or maces can also be found on the mountainsides.
