ROCK CLIMBING:

The Andrychów region offers also an interesting range of attractions for climbers:
Apart from many natural rock outcrops that are suitable for climbing, we can boast a newly opened rock-climbing wall in Gymnasium № 1, in Andrychów. It is one of the highest walls in Poland (13,7 m high, 13,4 m wide, overhang 3,5 m). The surface of the wall is diversely curved. The size and the range of its difficulty allow organising here competitions on the level of the Polish Cup.
On the area of Beskid Mały [The Small Beskid Mountains], there are a lot of outcrops and rock towers, reaching up to 13m. Their formations, mainly of limestone and pudding stone, are very attractive to climbers.

Many rocks have been fitted with permanent climbing aids. One can do there the aid climbing, whereas on the smaller folds, bouldering may be trained. The biggest clusters of inselbergs can be found on Ścieszków Groń Mountain, Łamana Skała [“The Broken Rock"], Żarek Mountain. Due to their unusual shapes, they were given original names, e.g. Zamczysko [“The Castle”], Wędrujące Kamienie [“The Walking Stones”], Zbójnickie Okno [“The Highland Robber’s Window”], Warownia pod Traktem [„The Stronghold over the Road”].
