The Green Trail to Ciecie艅 from Wi艣niowa is a short forest walk with a beautiful viewpoint at the end of the journey. It is also a part of the long-distance GSBW (Main Trail of the Island Beskids).
Starting Point of the Green Trail in Wi艣niowa
In Wi艣niowa, there are two trails that lead to the summit of Ciecie艅: a longer yellow trail and a shorter green trail. Both start in the center of the village, near the old wooden church (bus stop, large free parking near the cemetery). Initially (about 15 minutes), we walk on asphalt:
Soon, the trails diverge, and we continue straight on the green trail: through a small grove to another clearing:
Before entering the forest, let's enjoy the view of the surroundings and the neighboring hills: Lubomir and Kamiennik:
In the forest, we will encounter a quite steep climb. The forest road is comfortable and wide, but it goes uphill all the time - a moment of rest only at the summit, about 1.5 hours from the trailhead.

We can return to Wi艣niowa the same way (the descent takes about 45 minutes), but if we are not in a hurry, it is worth walking along the ridge towards Ksi臋偶a G贸ra and then descending to Wi艣niowa on the yellow trail. In total, this loop will take about 3 hours.
