Things to do
Forget everything below 680 m a.s.l. At Drewniana Róża almost everything that matters happens within a hundred metres of your doorstep: the swimming pond, Forest SPA, hammocks and the playground. And when you do want to go out the gate, there are over 30 places nearby, from Szklarka Waterfall (2.4 km) to Śnieżka (14 km), with a map and a route from us.
On site
Six reasons why guests at Drewniana Róża usually don't leave until lunchtime — and even then, reluctantly.
Poland's highest-located swimming pond — 680 m a.s.l. The water is filtered biologically, without a gram of chlorine, so your eyes don't sting and your skin doesn't remember the swim. A separate 40 cm-deep paddling area for the youngest.

How our swimming pond worksA dry sauna and an infrared sauna, a relaxation room looking straight into the forest, plus massages and signature rituals. In the evening you can have the whole zone to yourselves.
See Forest SPAA little library, a fireplace and an armchair you could sit in through a whole rainy day. A kids' corner with a climbing wall for the little ones, table football for the bigger ones.
A nature trail, two trampolines, a sandpit and a treehouse. In other words, a day's plan the kids put together themselves, usually right after breakfast.
Strung between the spruces, right by the water. The most underrated attraction in the whole valley — and the hardest to leave.
A covered spot for an evening together by the fire. We have wood and firelighters on site — just say the word at reception.

In winter
A winter's day in the valley is shorter, but denser. It starts in the dark and ends in the sauna.
Straight from the hot sauna into the icy water, and then back again. In the evening the pond is illuminated — a sight worth getting cold for.
Right next to the cabins, so you can pop in for a hot cocoa between runs. Sledges are ready on site.
We set off in the dark to reach the ridge before first light. You'll need your own crampons and a head torch — the rest is just willingness.
A walk with the kids to the feeding rack, with hay and carrots in the backpack. Along the way, tracks in the snow that need no explanation.
A Friday session with a towel and essential oils in the dry sauna. Sign up at reception — there are as many places as there are benches.
