The track on the slope of Góra Żar

The year-round toboggan run works on the slope of Góra Żar (761 m) in the Little Beskids above Międzybrodzie Bialskie. The mountain offers a view over Lake Międzybrodzkie, and its summit holds the upper reservoir of the Porąbka-Żar pumped-storage power plant. The ride is one of the main attractions of the area.

How the ride works

The track is built of more than a dozen inclines, some of them quite steep. The sledge cars have brakes, so riders set their own speed, from a gentle descent to a fast run. Anyone aged 14 and over may ride alone; younger children go with an adult. Tickets are sold at the booth by the Meteo building.

Reaching the summit

A black hiking trail leads up from Międzybrodzie Żywieckie, as does the ski run on the slope. The easier option is the funicular of Polskie Koleje Linowe starting in Międzybrodzie. There is a gliding airfield on the summit plateau.

  • Ticket booth by the Meteo building
  • Parking at the foot of the slope
  • Food outlet
  • Funicular to the summit
Visit duration: approx. 20 minutes Seasonality: All year round
