Holidays with children in the Karkonosze Mountains – how to plan a successful family mo...

A family trip to the mountains is one of those holiday ideas that combines everything: adventure, contact with nature, activity, and quality time together without rush. But for such a trip to really succeed, it must be well planned. Especially when children of different ages are involved, it is important to consider the needs of each family member and the desire to rest. Fortunately, the Karkonosze Mountains and Karpacz have everything you are looking for, which, combined with a well-chosen hotel or apartment, can become the best holiday destination for the whole family.

Why the Karkonosze Mountains?

The Karkonosze is a range perfect for family hikes. Mountains not too high, but full of breathtaking views, varied trails, and plenty of attractions within reach. Karpacz, located at the foot of Śnieżka, is one of the most interesting places for a mountain holiday. Here you will find not only mountain paths but also a rope park, toboggan run, a block museum, and many places that children will love from the first day. These mountains don't tire you out – they inspire. That's why they are recommended for families with children.

Step-by-step planning – what is worth considering?

• Adaptation to the children’s age: For families with young children, easy trails and attractions close to the center will work well, such as a visit to the mountain shelter above Łomniczka or a walk around the dam. Older children will happily try hiking to Śnieżka, riding the cable car, or visiting the Wild Waterfall.

• Alternative for bad weather: Mountain weather can be changeable – therefore, it’s worth having an alternative plan for unpredictable weather. A swimming pool, playroom, animation, or creative workshops in the hotel for children are a rescue from boredom and give parents a moment of respite.

• Accommodation matters: Choosing the place to stay is one of the most important points in deciding about holidays. A mountain hotel should be not only comfortable but also family-friendly – with space for play, child-friendly facilities, and a place to rest after a day outdoors.

What to take on a vacation with children?

When going to the mountains, proper preparation is necessary to ensure your and your loved ones' safety. Before a mountain hike, make sure to have:

• comfortable trekking shoes,

• rain jackets – even in summer,

• sunscreen, headwear, sunglasses,

• water supply and favorite snacks,

• a smartphone with the RATUNEK app, which makes it easier to call for help from GOPR rescuers,

• a backpack with space for a water bottle, fleece and... a toy,

• a first aid kit containing basic first aid items including plasters and bandages.

During the 2025 holidays at Green Mountain, we will invite our guests every Wednesday and Saturday for a free tour with a licensed guide who will ensure that the expedition is safe and full of interesting facts about the Sudetes region.
