There's a reason that we had ability to develop our program into that area. And it's because of friends, being together with people, mountains, the nature and the energy that comes from all that. When you are with us you step into whole another dimension and door shuts. World changes and it's an awesome feeling. Many great things can happen during that time. Every time you go with us is different. Experiences that softens your heart and opens your eyes a little and quiets you a little bit and everybody needs that in life. We started this because it was great and it was right and everybody in theirs life wants a little of greatness. Everybody has the ability to take a deep breath and overcome difficulties and has the talent to get inside themselves. We all do...
HIKING CAMP is similar to our HIKING TOUR OFFER except that you will stay in one place and hike the trails of Beskid Sadecki and Pieniny from this location. It's little easier since you will not have to carry all your belongings on your back. You will be able to leave them in the lodge and just take with you what's necessary for one day to have on the trail.
This offer is also directed towards active individuals. If you prefer to drive, fly use quads or motorbikes then you will not have much fun choosing this program. Here you will actually get to use all your senses: not only will you see, but also hear, smell, feel and touch. You will spend your time in
unspoiled nature, breathing clean, mountain air and do much more than traditional vacationer. It will be strenuous at times but definitely adventurous and magical. We can promise you that!
Participating in our program is always fun. For a few days you will enjoy yourselves away from your daily routines. You will see amazing and fascinating new places. You will learn about the land and its history. You will be able to see and touch and live all that it's around you first hand and not from the picture or television. You will be constantly in touch with everything that surrounds you. You will be a part of a wild and preserved nature, able to admire breathtaking views. You will be far away from polluted air, concrete jungles and parking lots. You will have a chance to experience Poland and learn what real, legendary "polish hospitality" is all about. These hiking trips will also present a chance to prove yourself. Long walks thru the mountains , preparing food and cooking outdoors are only few of the tasks prepared specially for you. Remember it will be all for you and about you! Team of highly trained professionals, mountain guides and mountain rescue veterans will be there with you to make sure that you are properly taken care of. You don't know the language? Don't worry there will always be present professional English speaker to assist, translate and help with all this.
Important thing is to remember where we are. It's all about preserving a nature. While trekking we will pay special attention not to litter, make noise or destroy the natural landscape. We cooperate with local companies and stay in small family-owned guesthouses and mountain hostels. Also part of our profits will be donated to local and ecotouristic organizations that help preserve this area everyday
Now a little about you accomodation...
This place is called "Chatka pod Niemcowa" or "Lodge under the German Peak". In 1974 "Almatur" Travel Organization and students of Krakow's Polytechnic bought an old mountaineers property and turned it into the cabin and camping spot for backpackers. Cabin is serving same purpose for over 30 years preserving long traditions of hiking and backpacking culture.
It lies in Beskid Sadecki in Radziejowa Range few hundred meters below the German Peak (Niemcowa) at the level of approx. 960 meters (3149 feet) above the sea level. Place where the cabin is located it's called a "Wild Cherry Tree" with only few very distant neighbors.
Little bit about what's there...
There's two log cabins situated close to each other built tens of years ago by the mountaineers. They were modified many times during the years by the pervious and current owners with help of people coming there every year.
