Description
Górskie Wytchnienie (Mountain Respite) is, as its name suggests, a place where you can take a deep breath of fresh mountain air, recharge your batteries and forget the hustle and bustle of the city and the rush of everyday life, while admiring the starry sky, listening to the hooting of owls and enjoying the scents of the wild. In Michałowice in the Karkonosze Mountains—a charming summer resort nestled at the foot of the Śnieżne Kotły cirques—there are seven year-round wooden cottages, each accommodating 6 people.
