Take a full-day trip from Wroclaw to marvel the scenic beauty of Lower Silesia. Visit the Giant Mountains and the Valley of Palaces and Gardens, and experience the unique culture of the region. See medieval castles, Baroque palaces, and much more.
On this full-day excursion you’ll visit the Karkonosze Mountains, also known as the Giant Mountains, and the fascinating Valley of Palaces and Gardens and unique 19th-century mansions. Most of the sites are situated at the foot of the largest mountain range in the Sudetes.

The scenic route takes you from Wrocław to the extraordinary 14th-century Siedlecin Tower House. Admire one of the most outstanding examples of medieval art: the 14th-century polychromes that portray scenes from the Arthurian legends of Lancelot.
