A rock above Wisła in the Silesian Beskids

Krzakoska Skała, also known as Skała na Kobylej, stands at about 730 metres above sea level in the Silesian Beskids, within the boundaries of Wisła. The sandstone face is around 10 metres high and ranks among the largest rock formations in this part of the range.

Views and climbing

From the top of the rock you can see the Wisła valley and the Czantoria and Równica ridges. Several climbing routes have been set on the face, so the site is regularly visited by climbers. The surroundings are spruce and beech forest, typical of the Silesian Beskid ridges.

Getting there

The approach follows the blue-marked trail starting at the Wisła Dziechcinka railway stop. The walk up takes about an hour and a quarter and needs no mountain experience, though the final stretch can be steep. The route is easy to extend into a longer ridge walk towards Kobyla.

  • Marked blue trail from Wisła
  • Rail access to the Wisła Dziechcinka stop
  • Climbing routes on the face
  • No toilets or refreshments at the rock
Cost: Free admission Visit duration: approx. 1 hour Seasonality: Year-round, care needed on the winter approach
