Krynica-Zdrój is a town that attracts many tourists not only due to its health-promoting values (as a spa), but also for its attractions, which are constantly growing. When you are planning to do some sightseeing and active leisure, apart from well-known sites, i.e. Jaworzyna Krynicka, Parkowa Mountain, it is worth visiting to a relatively new facility, namely a viewing tower, which is almost 50 m high and 1030 m long.
Viewing tower in Krynica – path in the treetops
This unusual structure is located at the top of the Słotwiny Arena ski station, which means it can be reached effortlessly by chairlift. Those who prefer physical activity can get to the tower by following a path which can be travelled by bicycle or simply on foot. The tower is made of black locust wood, which contributes significantly to the strength and robustness of the structure. The overall design is certainly stunning and pleasing to the eye, while maintaining the highest safety standards.
A path ascending gently in the treetops (gradually increasing in height) leads to the viewing tower. It is the ideal place to relax and rest from the hustle and bustle of city life. While walking, you can simply be with nature, listen to the birds singing, the hum of the forest, and above all admire the beautiful and unforgettable views. Educational installations are placed along the route, enriching the visitors’ knowledge of nature and briefly introducing the culture and history of the region.
But that’s not all! An additional feature of the tower mostly appealing to children is the 60 m long slide. It provides lots of fun and joy. Another attraction popular among the youngest tourists is the PUKY tricycles, which certainly add variety while visiting this remarkable place.
At the foot of the lookout tower you can buy souvenirs, snacks or something to drink. You can also leave your four-legged friends there in specially prepared pens.
