The Fir Forest... wrote Żeromski. And today you’ll find more beech than fir in the Świętokrzyski National Park. In autumn, beech leaves change their colour.... The golden colour of the beech leaves, together with the green needles of the fir trees, create a land for walks with the family, lonely hikes, crazy runs.... The best way to admire this colourful duo is from the observation tower at the Holy Cross.
The taste of autumn is delicious! It smells of cinnamon, warms you up with cardamom. So try the Sandomierz apple preserves. The trees in the Sandomierz region are heaving with the slightly sour Eliza, the aromatic Gloster, the sweet Gala... You can taste delicious preserves made from apple treasures on the Sandomierz Apple Trail.
The queen of Świętokrzyskie fruit is the plum, which takes us with its aroma from summer into sunny autumn. We recommend plum cakes, chocolate-covered plums and warming liqueurs. You can get such wonders in the Szydłów town hall in the shop next to the Plum Museum.
The queen of Polish fruit has her own festival in August. The Plum Festival within the historic walls of Szydłów is an opportunity to taste different varieties of this fruit, have fun and feast together. After the event, Szydłów still smells of plums. You can buy smoked, delicious ones at the Tourist Information Point in Szydłów.
