How to get there?

  • Kazimierz Dolny is located about 150 km from Warsaw city center in Lublin Voivodeship, on the Eastern bank of the Vistula river
  • By car: It takes about 2,5 hours, depending on the traffic (quality of the roads is not the best). Google navigation may be useful since there are few ways to get there (the selected route depends on where you live in Warsaw and at what time you leave which determines traffic – the best option is to select the Google navigation fastest route)

Tourist attractions:

  • Kazimierz Dolny city:
    • The old market square (rynek)
    • The castle (zamek) tower (13th or 14th century) and ruins (14th – 16th century). You will find the ticket office in the castle. The opening hours: May – October 10 am – 6 pm, November – April 10 am – 4 pm. The castle and tower are located on the hill – it may be difficult to get there with a stroller
    • The Hill of Three Crosses (Góra Trzech Krzyży) – 270 m from the market square, the crosses commemorate victims of the 18th-century plagues. Magnificent view of the city. Please note it may be difficult to get there with a stroller
  • Vistula river: you can have a nice walk along the river bank and during summertime, there are one-hour cruises on the Vistula river
  • Many impressive gorges (wąwozy): to visit one of them please enter its name to the Google navigation, eg. Korzeniowy Dół (Root Tunnel) – the most picturesque one, 2,3 km from the market square, you can get there by car, Wąwóz Małachowskiego – 350 m from the market square, Wąwóz Niezabitowskich – 2 km from the market square
  • Jewish history: Jewish community started to settle in Kazimierz Dolny in the 13th century. Before the Second World War the Jews constituted half of the population. Nowadays there is the synagogue building and the old Jewish cemetery
  • About 2 km from Kazimierz there is a small ski area where you can teach your kids how to ski (only Polish version available: http://stacjakazimierz.pl/)
