Szyndzielnia

Szyndzielnia is a mountain peak in the Silesian Beskids standing at 1026 meters between several valleys. The summit features a stone lodge with an observation tower in Alpine style that accommodates visitors.

The stone lodge was built in 1897 and was the first accommodation facility established in the Beskid Mountains. This early development made the site a major center for mountain visitors in the region.

The Alpine garden on the summit displays mountain plants from the region and the Alps that grow there, helping visitors understand the local plant life. This collection shows the natural diversity found across these mountain ranges.

A modern cable car system transports visitors from the valley to the summit in yellow gondolas with panoramic windows. This makes the ascent comfortable and offers views along the way.

The observation tower offers views across the landscape in multiple directions. Few visitors realize this tower has a distinct Alpine construction that sets it apart from other structures in the area.
