Autumn in Świętokrzyskie
Autumn rewards the end of summer with colours and flavours. Enjoy the best of autumn in the Świętokrzyskie Mountains: the joy of walks and bike rides, the delight of nature's masterpieces seen from vantage points, the delightful tastes and smells of Świętokrzyskie delicacies. We have prepared some suggestions for your holiday in the Świętokrzyskie region.
Autumn in the mountains
Trips and walks in the autumn not only extend the holidays, but prepare the body for the winter. Prepare your body and mind on the Świętokrzyskie trails.
In the autumn, the sun rays squeeze through the green needles of fir trees and the yellow-orange leaves of beech trees in the Świętokrzyski National Park. As you walk along the trails and paths, all you'll hear is the rustling of leaves and the sound of the wind, or... the tolling bells of the Holy Cross, if you take the Royal Road to the top of the mysterious Łysa Góra. Or perhaps you're interested in wandering among rocks millions of years old, bathed in the autumn sunshine and coloured by golden-red flora? The surroundings of Chęciny will inspire you to discover the secrets of ancient quarries.
Cycling in autumn
Cycling is quicker - to work, to school. When cycling in the Świętokrzyskie region in the autumn, it is worth slowing down to enjoy the golden landscapes. Apple orchards on the Green Velo Trail in Sandomierz, forests near Końskie or the charming Linden Avenue in Oblęgorek will convince you that the most colourful time of the year has arrived! Similarly, in Ponidzie - a short ride along the path through the Winiarski Forest ending with a visit to the phenomenal pine tree on stilts will allow you to forget about everyday life for a short while.
Inspiration for family trips, long bike rallies and extreme descents
Autumn from above
A photo with friends, a selfie on Instagram, a Facebook account from viewpoints always receive the most "likes". Explore the Świętokrzyskie Mountains from one viewpoint to another!
Climb to the highest point - to the viewing tower at Holy Cross and see the beech and fir mosaic. Golden-red beech mingle with evergreen firs, creating a landscape that will make a beautiful backdrop for your selfie.
Enthusiasts of beautiful views will delight in the scenery of Chęciny Castle. From the highest tower you can see the border between the Świętokrzyskie Mountains and Ponidzie. The further south you go from the castle, the more the wooded mountains give way to the fields and meadows of the land of gentleness.
Autumn with winemakers
Autumn is the season of winemakers. It is in the autumn that grapes are harvested - they are used to make wine, which together with the local cheeses, takes you on a journey through flavours drawn straight from nature.
During your visit to the Świętokrzyskie Vineyards, you will taste the best wines and have the opportunity to participate in the grape harvest – GRAPE HARVEST IN THE TERRA VINEYARD
You'll find out where to find city vineyards in the Świętokrzyskie region and sample from around the Świętokrzyskie Mountains.
A trip along the Sandomierz Wine Route is a great opportunity to take a break from the hustle and bustle of the city amidst fabulous landscapes, taste wine and listen to stories from winemakers who are keen to share their passion for viticulture.
Autumn with children
Although autumn marks the end of the summer holidays, children quickly learn that this time of year offers plenty of surprises! Also parents, who also deserve some colour in their life, will benefit from these proposals!
Discover autumn together at the Bałtów Tourist Complex, which invites you to the Pumpkin Festival until 23 October. You will learn what delicacies can be cooked from this autumn vegetable.
The Leśne Zacisze Zoo also invites the little explorers to enjoy autumn fun: they can see the famous Wygwizdów cow, go down the slide, have fun in the ball park - and these are just some of the crazy things that await in the zoo.
Autumn begins like a fairy-tale in the Fairy Tale Centre in Pacanów. At this year's Fairytale Character Convention on 9 October, the Kultureska Theatre will take to the stage with performances of "Green Cinderella" and "Fairytale Fiesta".
