We will not pretend that the conditions here are endearing. Because we have a forest here. Part of the Świętokrzyska Forest, the buffer zone of the Suchedniowsko-Oblęgorski Landscape Park. The close vicinity of Bartek's oak, which, according to the latest calculations, has been growing here for 685 years. We think he must be just fine here. Just like us. Life goes on outside here to the rhythm of a playlist made by birds. Shelter is provided by: a hot sauna and simple interiors of a year-round yurt. Foxes and hedgehogs live in the vicinity, and it happens that a wild boar will also drop by. Our forest allows you to walk 25 kilometers without crossing a single public road. And when the disheveled pine trees surrounding our clearing sift through the sun's rays like a sieve, some magic is involved. It is best to take a closer look at it from the position of a sun lounger in front of the tent.
You can fall into the embrace of the forest as a couple, in your favorite group or as a family. We have prepared a cozy yurt for four, but it can accommodate even eight. Those who dream of simplicity, nature therapy and slowing down come here. It attracts with a wild sauna, a beach among the trees and a pond where you can immerse yourself. Here we recharge with positive energy from people and pass it on during workshops, meetings with drums, dances and electronic music. You can have a forest wedding, hen party or just stay with us. The possibilities are endless and we divide them according to the needs.
Come at any time and connect to the forest power supply.
You can find our yurt with a cozy interior in the Świętokrzyska Forest, in the buffer zone of the Suchedniowsko-Oblęgorski Landscape Park. Among the hairy pines, we have created a space for rest and regeneration. You can just stay in the forest, in simple conditions, to see how it feels.
We offer you a yurt with an area of 30 m², in which there is:
– a large double bed,
– 4 single mattresses,
– a stove that provides warmth all year round,
– a lot of storage space (wardrobes, cupboards, shelves, baskets),
– a bench where you can eat a meal, work or scratch (sitting on the floor),
– soft carpets and lots of pillows,
- Yoga books and mats.
A group of 4 people can rest here freely, but there are more places to sleep - an 8-person pack or a family with children will fit. Two people would then have to sleep on a mat or sheepskins. We finished the bright interior with natural materials.
You have access to water in the yurt. There is a 200-liter barrel with a pump, water flows from the tap into the bowl.
The cold water shower is located in an insulated room next to the sauna, approximately 30 meters from the yurt. You can heat a pot of water and pour yourself from the pitcher. There are also two compostable toilets.
Everything in the Enchanted Forest was built by hand, based on the principles of natural construction. The heart of our space is the sauna (Russian banya), next to which there is also a tub and a pond for morning bathing, cooling down on hot days and swimming (it is small in size, but it is deep). We do not have a fence, we want every visitor to feel like part of the forest here.

The blue trail runs right next to us: Zagnańsk (railway station) - Bartków - Samsonów - Tumlin. It is an 8-kilometre journey, on the route of which you visit Bartek's oak (legend has it that King Jan III Sobieski and Marysieńka hid treasures under the tree), goes along the Bobrza valley, visits an old industrial settlement - Samsonów and Góra Grodowa, where there was a mine of red yew sandstone. The trip ends in Tumlin. A bit further, in the town of Tumlin-Podgród, on the slope of Mount Wykieńska, you can go skiing in the season. In Ciosowa, which is still a bit further, there is a geological exposure of the Tumlin sandstones in the place of a quarry operating until 1975. The red rocks reach up to 20 meters and can be admired both from below and on top.
In the same place as the hiking trail, you can start a bicycle loop around the Suchedniowsko-Oblęgorski Landscape Park. The county bicycle trail is 50.2 km long and has interesting climbs. Attractions on the route include: the devil's stone discovered in 1988 in Kontrewers near Mniów (two figures with horns are carved on it), the Henryk Sienkiewicz museum in Oblębork on the southern slopes of Barania Góra, the remains of a blast furnace plant with 500-meter walls in Bobrzy and the ruins of Huta Józef in Samsonów, whose construction was initiated by Stanisław Staszic. In Porzecze, the trail connects to the Green Velo Eastern Bicycle Trail.
