Welcome
The impression that Podkarpacie landscapes make on visitors to this area cannot be compared to any others. Not surprisingly, it is considered to be one of the most spectacular, though still least known, parts of Europe. The patchwork of endless fields and forests of the Sandomierska Basin, rolling Bieszczady mountain pastures and Beskid Niski hills, Ciężkowickie Dynowskie, Strzyżowskie Przemyskie foot-hills, the eminences of Roztocze, and finally the valleys of the biggest rivers in the south-east of Poland, such as Wisła, San, Wisłok and Wisłoka. The advantages of natural and unique landscapes, numerous historic monuments, towns of considerable size and antiquity such as Przemyśl, Sanok, Jarosław and Krosno as well as traditional Polish hospitality of the inhabitants attract great numbers of not only Polish but also foreign visitors. This is a paradise for tourists. In summer one can visit the region taking advantage of well-marked routes for walkers, horse-riders, bikers and cars. Water sports lovers can go sailing on the Solińskie Lake or try caneoing down the San river. Those who prefer sky adventures will find a convenient place for hang-gliding and gliding here . Fishermen and hunters will also find many attractions in this area. In winter, a variety of cross-country skiing routes and well- prepared ski slopes as well as lifts are awaiting downhill skiers.
