Szklarska Poreba

Tucked between the Karkonosze and Izera Mountains in Poland’s Sudetes, Szklarska Poręba is a place whose character is shaped by its highland setting and long winters. The Kamienna River runs through the town, while forest paths lead toward Karkonosze National Park and the slopes of Szrenica, a peak associated with skiing and hiking. Kamieńczyk Waterfall, in a gorge above the resort, is among the best-known falls in the Polish Sudetes. Szklarska Poręba also preserves a glassmaking heritage reflected in its name, which means “glassmakers’ clearing.” Trace how Szklarska Poręba connects with the Karkonosze and Lower Silesia by browsing webcams nearby.
