Kowary

Kowary occupies the Jedlica valley on the northern foothills of the Karkonosze Mountains in Lower Silesia. The town lies where the Karkonosze meet the Rudawy Janowickie range, close to Poland’s border with the Czech Republic. Mining defined Kowary for centuries: iron ore was worked here long before the area’s post-war uranium extraction. The former uranium mine is now accessible through the Sztolnie Kowary underground route, which documents this industrial chapter of the town. Its location also places the forests and mountain routes of Karkonosze National Park within the broader local setting.
