The
trip starts by the Tourist Information Office. We walk through the
town centre along the green trail until we reach the black trail at
Kołłątaja Street where Glass Factory in the Woods is situated. At
the car park in front of the factory there is a giant sculpture of
the Ghost of the Mountains and his Lady. Glass Factory in the Woods
is the place where glass manufacturing traditions have been preserved
for centuries and make Szklarska Poręba a famous place. Visitors can
witness hand made glass production and buy glassware in the factory
outlet. After leaving the Glass Factory in the Woods we walk along
the road towards Old Walloon Hut which used to be the seat of the
Walloons, legendary mineral stones diggers and excavators. There we
can learn about treasuries to be found in The Karkonosze and The
Izery Mountains. The black trail takes us back to the centre of
Szklarska Poręba.
Trip
time depends on the time spent in the Glass Factory in the Woods and
Old Walloon Hut.
