St. Francis' Spring

Highlight • Natural Monument

A well-enclosed water source that, according to legend, has the power to heal eyes. The spring is one of the main attractions of the trail to the Agata and Łysica Rocks. An interesting fact is that the source has a constant temperature and never freezes.

Słupski Weksel Shelter

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The word promissory note meant in a railway dialect borrowed from German - a switch. From there, you could travel in different directions. Originally, the main railway line turned south here towards Saint Catherine. The expansion towards the Holy Cross was made in 1923-1924. The investment was realized by the company "Aleksander hr. Szeptycki i Fussmann i Ska ”, who at that time leased the Zagnański sawmill. The author of the design of this episode was Eng. Józef Kubala from Suchedniów. During World War II, the German occupier started building a third track leading to the mine in Rudki. This tour was never completed
and a few years after the war the tracks were dismantled.

Interestingly, during the construction of this section, the workers found a hidden treasure; under the roots of a thick fir, where a total of several kilograms of silver coins - tsarist 10-kopeck coins were found. This deposit is related to the fact that he was often camped in the vicinity of the insurgent parties in the years 1863–1864. The discovery was divided between the workers employed in the construction of the queue. Other interesting archaeological finds that were found in 1925 during earthworks on the railway in the Łysogóry area are: a medieval sword from the 13th century, currently stored in the Polish Army Museum, and two spurs.

Świętokrzyski Pilgrim Emeryk

Highlight • Monument

The Świetokrzyskie Mountains are undoubtedly attractive, but the parking fee near Pilgrim is a scandal and robbery in broad daylight😬ps. Beer at the inn for a price like on the French Riviera 😂

A beautiful section of the forest road in the wilderness of the Świętokrzyski National Park. During the summer heat, there is a blissful coolness. Beautiful views - you can enjoy the whole stretch.
