Twardowski Rocks Wilderness
When entering the Twardowski Rocks Wilderness from Tyniecka Street (at the Ska艂y Twardowskiego bus stop), after a short walk, you will reach the "Ska艂y Twardowskiego" park with charming meadows and a beautiful viewpoint overlooking Krakow, the bend of the Vistula River, and the Wolski Forest. In the forest, you will find deep shade, while on the meadows and near the reservoir, you can bask in the sun. It is a perfect place for a family picnic or barbecue, and in winter, for sledding fun. The park lacks children's facilities, such as a playground. The forest has wheelchair and bike accessible asphalt paths, such as Al. Elvis Presley, Do Groty, and Zielna. The remaining paths are unpaved, rocky, and sometimes steep.
Twardowski's Cave
Within the park, you will find Twardowski's Cave - one of the longest caves in the Krak贸w-Cz臋stochowa Upland, measuring about half a kilometer in length. If you want to see the cave, strong headlamps are necessary. The first chamber is quite spacious, and there are side passages branching off. It is advisable to have some rainproof clothing as water drips from the ceiling. Unfortunately, the cave is wild and can be littered...
