Black Vistula, Mountain brook in Cieszyn County, Poland
The Black Vistula forms the initial segment of the Vistula River, flowing through the dense forests of the Silesian Beskids mountain range.
The brook marks the traditional starting point of Poland's longest river, which served as a crucial trade route throughout medieval times.
The Black Vistula represents the beginning of a water system that connects multiple regions and communities across the Polish territories.
Visitors can reach the brook through marked hiking trails in the Barania Góra area of the Silesian Beskids mountains.
The brook merges with Biała Wisełka at the Czerniańskie Lake reservoir to form the initial section of the Vistula River system.
