The loop of the yellow and green trail between Przesieka and Borowice is a suggestion for a short and easy forest walk with attractions.

Short and Easy Forest Walk with Attractions

We can start the loop hike at any point in Przesieka or Borowice.

Parking is available at the Siruwia Japanese Garden, at the entrance of the yellow trail in the forest near the road in Borowice, or in Przesieka.

The trail mostly goes through the forest, with the exception of passing through Przesieka and a short section along the road near Borowice.

Attractions along the Route

The main natural attraction is the Podg贸rna Waterfall - the third highest in the Karkonosze Mountains (10m), the only one where... you can swim!

Note - the water is icy cold!

Interesting fact about the Podg贸rna Waterfall: in the 19th century, the owner of a tavern for tourists, located right next to the waterfall, built a special water reservoir in its upper part. For an additional fee, he would open it, making the waterfall look more attractive. Today, we can only admire the "work of nature".

In addition, there's the forest, ubiquitous Karkonosze rocks...
