Połonina Caryńska
1297 m n.p.m.

You may ask why we go to the mountains? Answer. To wander, relax, calm down, laugh, fool around, and above all, enjoy the beautiful views. All this gave us the Bieszczady Mountains, which are already on a good day greeted by a roar of a young deer, whose loud and clear was heard from the porch of our accommodation. This was only the beginning. Listen…

The night was very warm and dark, filled with a loud roar deer. Smoothly and quickly climbed the Tarnica to see the sunrise. Spectacle that awaited us at the top, exceeded our expectations. The free space between the clouds and the tops of the mountains was filled with sunshine, giving a great effect [photo]. We sat there a few long moments, then continued our journey.

We got there late in the afternoon, but early enough to safely catch the sunset. After a quick regrouping we went to Ostra Mała. Inputs to the vantage point guard Horses of the Apocalypse [photo], proudly straining muscles. The cloudless sky was the perfect stage for performances, which decided to pay us our star.

After regenerating the hostel we went to a vantage point located on Górze Krzyżna From the top the views are spectacular [photo] and a sense of space… Unfortunately, we failed to implement all plans today.

On the track wet, places ankle deep mud. Lights from flashlights to illuminate a small stretch of road in front of us. It is night, and we traditionally go to the sunrise, this time on Radziejowa. When you reach the observation tower, showed us the majestic and dark Tatry [photo] and scenic landscapes bathed in fog. Sun is unfortunately not in the plans shown on the horizon. Timidly opened one eye, then disappeared for good in the thicket of clouds [photo]. There also maintained our position in the tower, we were driven from it by a small army of scouts. We rested in the shelter on Przehybie, then papal trail went to Szlachtowa. It is a very charming way, allowing to know and admire the scenery typical of Beskid [photo]. In Jaworki had forced rest under “happy” shelter, which admired the rain 😉 When the last drops have already fallen to the ground, the weather began to improve by the minute. Juicy green and blue sky formed a perfect contrast. We decided to go back to Radziejowa, recover tower and admire the sunset. It was worth the effort put in to reach the goal. The sun danced his wild dancing on the horizon [photo], creating memorable images. Proud Tatras watching everything from afar [photo]. It was beautiful!

The weather from early morning was not too good. Low cloud and gloomy atmosphere, effectively delaying the decision to leave.

Again encouraged by nice weather we decided to stay for the sunset. All afternoon we were shooting around the area, admiring the scenery Beskid [photo].

Access to the village Izby, surprised us with beautiful views [photo]. Forest path we hiked to the top [photo], which to the end defended very sharp approach [photo]. From the inside Lackowa not looks impressive, but from the outside attracts attention, towering far above the horizon [photo]. On the trail we met a few people, and in the warm sunshine wandered up nicely. On the way back we decided to try their luck and once again go over Wierchomlą to admire the sunset.

Slowly, but surely climb to the Niemcowa. Slowly we feel tired our legs. The weather did not disappoint and today, and the views [photo] reward the effort put in approach. In the area marked wooden table, go down a bit for the trail and go to the rest on “Jackowa Pościel”. It is a valley of memory dedicated to the people of the mountains [photo], here died Jacek Durlak, mountain guide. We let ourselves in this place for a moment of reflection. At the top of Niemcowa we meet a few people, short relax and move on. We get to very old cottage [photo] memory of Ludwiki Nowakowej , grandmother Poczekaja. Unfortunately it is not given to us to know her personally … In the story, we learned that it was a unique person. Grandma even at the age of 90 years she lived in the mountains. She was caregiver trekkers, everyone could relax with her and listen to interesting stories. Amazing… With Kordowca forest path [photo] we descend to Rytra, from which shuttle back to Piwnicznej. In one of the streets we find the diner “Na szlaq” in which regenerate strength. Delicious food and nice people.Poczekaja. We ended the day on Obidzy, at sunset [photo].

Skopiec 724 m n.p.m.

Expedition into the unknown and new territories for us, is what we like the most. They provide unforgettable impressions and emotions that drive our actions further. This time we went to Rudawa Janowicka and Kaczawskie mountain. The objective were two peaks of the Crown of Polish Mountains. Mountains, however, are unpredictable. Despite the very positive weather forecasts, the reality was quite different. Listen…


 05.04.2014

Route: Czarnów ? Mała Ostra ? Czarnów ? Komarno ? Skopiec ? Płonina ? Zamek Niesytno ? Wieściszowice ? Kolorowe Jeziorka ? Czarnów

Traditionally, we went on the trail very early to greet the sunrise in the mountains. In the light of flashlights, lightening the darkness around us, you could see the snow falling. No signs of it right, but we still had hope … When you reach the Mała Ostra began to rain. From the vantage point we watched as the mist absorbs the entire landscape, tightly covering every detail. It was damp and gloomy. We decided to go back down and wait for better weather.

Before noon it stopped raining, but the clouds were still low. After all we went in Kaczawskie mountains to enter the Skopiec. Way to the top of the stone arrows designate [photo], arranged by the tourists who were already on it. At the top there is a small rock rubble [photo] and geodetic measuring mark AC0270. On the way back we went to a neighboring Baraniec, which, under good conditions, must extend a beautiful view [photo].

Another point of today’s trip was the Castle Niesytno in Płonina [photo]. It was built on a rocky promontory, probably in the fourteenth century, was below the slope adjacent to the renaissance palace and a beautiful park. Currently, there renovations, which will hopefully bring back the old charm of the place.

Returning now to Czarnów, in the village Wieściszowice noticed a sign inviting you to visit “colored lakes”. Without thinking for a long time, we decided to go there and see what’s going on. It was a hit. Colored lakes are ponds in the foothills of the Wielka Kopa, formed at the site of excavations old German mine. The first of these “Yellow rates” at this time of year, with the yellow has little in common, however, presents an extremely [photo] on the background of the surrounding landscape. Wandering among the rocks and steep cliffs [photo] admire the magic and beauty of this place [photo]. We find the next “purple lake” [photo]. It is flooded excavation of the oldest mine, which is the largest of all the lakes. It is filled with water having a reddish-yellow color, which is a sulfuric acid solution. It is surrounded by scenic escarpment and beautiful trees. The combination of yellow rocks with red color of the water, creates a fantastic atmosphere [photo]. Following the green trail to the top, we find the next “Blue Lake” [photo], which owes its color copper compounds [photo]. Something beautiful…

Although not the best conditions, it was a very intense and interesting day. Unfortunately, the weather forecast for the next day was very bed. We decided to return and that we’ll be back as soon as possible, with far better weather.
