Nature awakening to life and a landscape rich in color encourages exploring Lower Silesian parks, hiking and biking, spending weekends away from home and discovering new places. Here’s our list of 10 suggestions for a recipe for a successful spring.

Enjoy the snow even in spring

The Lasocki Ridge, Szklarska Poręba, Jakuszyce, the Bystrzyckie Mountains, and the Table Mountains – Lower Silesia boasts numerous cross-country skiing trails. Tourists have access to excellent trails, equipment rentals, and mountain huts. Cross-country skiing is available near Jagodna or in Karłów, where the trails are short, and in the cross-country skiing mecca of Jakuszycka Glade, which offers trails of varying difficulty.
Find your route

Spring is the perfect time to get your bike out of the basement and back on the trails. You’ll find a trail for yourself in every corner of Lower Silesia. In the Kłodzko region, one of the most interesting options is Singletrack Glacensis, Europe’s largest network of narrow, one-way trails with varying degrees of difficulty. The Barycz Valley will surprise you with its well-prepared trails overlooking vast fishponds. For those seeking extreme adventures, more challenging trails await in the Owl Mountains and Karkonosze Mountains. The Kaczawskie Mountains and Foothills are also perfect for cycling – the slight elevations shouldn’t pose any problems for cycling enthusiasts.

You can search for all routes on dolnyslaskrowerem.pl and in the Dolny Slask Rower app(Android, iOS).
Lower Silesia in turn

In the spring, leave your car in the garage and take advantage of the great connections of the Lower Silesian Railway, which can take you to, among others, Międzylesie, Bard Śląski, Bystrzyca Kłodzka or Janowice Wielkie. This is not only a way to save money, but also an opportunity to get to know the beautiful corners of the region. As part of the “Lower Silesia by Rail” campaign, we will show attractions in selected places that you can reach by rail. Remember that on weekends you can travel on a single ticket for 59 zloty.

Discover the attractions without the crowds

Don’t like crowding while traveling? We have a way for that. In the Kłodzko region you will find plenty of atmospheric towns to visit. Bardo Slaskie attracts pilgrims to the Minor Basilica with its statue of the Virgin Mary, but also to the architecture: a stone bridge, the ruins of a medieval castle and a store selling Bardo gingerbread. It’s also worth a visit to Wambierzyce, famous for its basilica with a monumental staircase, as well as its moving nativity scene, which is open all year round. Also not to be missed is a visit to Ząbkowice Śląskie, where a must-see is the Leaning Tower, plus the market square with its Gothic town hall, St. Mary’s Church and a visit to Dr. Frankenstein’s laboratory.
Paradise Lower Silesia

The singing of birds, a fabulous color palette, the smell of blooming flowers – arboretums affect the senses as nature awakens to life. In Lower Silesia we have three such places – the Wojslawice Arboretum, the Forest Arboretum in Stradomia Wierzchnia and the Arboretum in Lądek-Zdrój. In Wojsławice, the largest collection of azaleas and rhododendrons in Poland blooms in May. In June, peonies and roses reign supreme. You will also see there a collection of minerals from the region. The Forest Arboretum is one of the largest botanical gardens in Poland. Its main attraction is trees and shrubs, including the country’s richest collection of pine trees. The Arboretum also boasts a rich collection of rhododendrons and protected plants, such as ponderosa pines. The garden in Ladek-Zdroj is maintained in the character of a walking park with benches, paths and bridges. Among other gardens of this type, it stands out for its naturalness and little interference with the forest ecosystem.
Tour the castles royally

In Lower Silesia you can move to different eras, visiting the ruins of medieval castles, baroque majestic buildings on a rocky promontory or the remains of Renaissance structures. Tourists are attracted to Grodziec Castle: with its mystery, turbulent history and intriguing fortress of treasures, as well as the pearl of medieval defensive architecture, Bolków Castle. A visit to the fairy-tale castle Książ with its garden terraces, park, palm house and mysterious underground is not to be missed. Visiting Lower Silesian castles and palaces is an opportunity to travel back in time, learn about past eras and draw valuable lessons from the past.

Spring in the bosom of nature, or a walk in Lower Silesian parks

Increasingly warmer temperatures, blooming flowers and greenery all around – spring is the perfect time to explore Lower Silesian parks: spas in spas or city parks – there are many places to choose from in the region. Wrocław boasts as many as 44 parks that are located within the city limits. Some of them are small, such as Wroclaw’s Stanislaw Tolpa Park, while others make up for their size and spread greenery over an area of up to a hundred hectares, such as Szczytnicki Park or Grabiszynski Park. In the spa towns, such as Cieplice, Długopole, Duszniki, Kudowa, Ladek, Polanica, Szczawno, you can take a relaxing stroll along the picturesque alleys and take in the healing waters.
Lower Silesia in miniature

Książ Castle, the Church of Peace, the Basilica in Krzeszów, and much more – you can see all these Lower Silesian monuments in one place. The miniature parks present monuments on a 1:25 scale, crafted with incredible precision. Guides lead tours through the park, explaining the history of the visited sites, as well as interesting facts and legends related to them. It’s a great place to inspire further travels. You’ll find similar attractions in Kowary and Kłodzko.
Take part in outdoor events

In spring, when the sun is with us all day, we want to spend more time outdoors. It’s the perfect time to participate in events. If you’d like to see firsthand what works can be made from flowers, visit the Flower and Art Festival at Książ Castle, where you’ll see floral arrangements. If you enjoy a royal atmosphere, we also recommend spending the May weekend at Czocha Castle during the “Heroes and Princesses” event. This will be a festival full of adventures that will transport everyone to the world of fairy tales and fables. Characters who regularly populate children’s imaginations will appear at the castle. Every year, around April, we invite you to the Opening of the Tourist Season in Lower Silesia, where representatives of attractions from across the region will be present.
