Kamieńczyk Waterfall

Wodospad Kamieńczyka

The highest waterfall on the Polish side, with a drop of about 27 meters in three tiers into a narrow gorge. Visitors can descend to the bottom of the gorge to look up at the falls.

Kamieńczyk Waterfall lies just outside the town of Szklarska Poręba in Poland. It has the largest drop of any waterfall on the Polish side of the Krkonoše Mountains. The gorge is deep and narrow, and after paying a small fee, visitors can wear a helmet and walk the boardwalk down to the bottom for a close view. From the town, it is about 40 minutes' walk along the trail. Continuing uphill leads to the Hala Szrenicka mountain hut on the ridge and the Snow Pits cirques. From Harrachov, it is about 20 minutes by car via the border crossing.
