Pond with a house on the water

Unfortunately, the house is no longer there. I wonder if it will be recreated.

The forest in Szczejkowice is an amazing place. It is rich in diverse fauna and flora. However, the most unusual place in this forest is the grove with a natural forest spring that has been flowing for a long time. The water that flows from it has a purity class of 1, and the local inhabitants attribute healing properties to it.

Garbocz Ponds

Highlight • Lake

The areas between Żory and Orzesze are among the most picturesque in Upper Silesia. The luminous forests hide the blue eyes of the ponds, arranged in ancient centuries by the human hand on the Ruda River. Hence, this area is often called Palowice Lakeland - from the town of Palowice, located in its very center. The lake district is part of the Cistercian Landscape Compositions of Rudy Wielkie Landscape Park.
