Monts Świętokrzyskie
Ancient gentle massif, between forests, stone ridges, monasteries, villages and geology legible around Kielce.

See all
For a stay of 2 to 5 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: moderate relief and regional destination. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Town or village
Łysica
Łysica is the most famous peak of the mountains of the mountains of the village of Tokrzyskie, reached by a forest path from the village of Katarzyna. The hike crosses beech, stone blocks and low ridges, in an ancient mountain whose interest lies in the texture of the road more than at altitude.
Town or village
Święty Krzyż
Święty Krzyż combines monastery, forest and stone piles characteristic of the mountains of the village of Tokrzyskie. The site attracts as much for its religious history as for views from the ridge, with an atmosphere of rural pilgrimage deeply linked to the massif.
Town or village
Kielce
Kielce serves as an urban gate to the 简więtokrzyskie mountains, with episcopal palace, central streets and geological reserves in the city itself. Its ancient quarries and hills close to them give a concrete approach to stone, fossils and local relief.
