If what attracts you to Kazimierz is the artistic atmosphere and beautiful nature around, I can suggest you stay in a place that combines both of these advantages. The intimate and cozy atmosphere allows you to get in the mood before exploring the surrounding area. Solid breakfasts give you energy for the whole day, and when you return, a sauna among the trees awaits you (included in the price of your stay).
You may not feel like going anywhere, and that's completely understandable. You can choose a book from our library, sit on the terrace, look at the forest around. Have a barbecue. I also have bikes for rent if you dream of a trip on two wheels.
The recipe for a leisurely holiday in Kazimierz may look like this:
– you can go for walks through the gorges – two of them, Korzeniowy and Czarny, are located a few minutes' walk from KaZielnik
– visit monuments, e.g. the Franciscan Monastery, the Parish Church of St. John the Baptist and Saint Bartholomew,
– learn about the history of the Kazimierz granaries, which served as grain warehouses in the city's heyday – you can admire them from the Three Crosses Mountain or the promenade along the Vistula River,
– go to Miećmierz, a village called a living open-air museum, and admire the ruins of the castle in Janowiec, the village and the Krowia Wyspa Reserve from the Albrechtówka hill (right next to the windmill); from the viewpoint it is worth taking a walk to the ruins of Stanisław Szukalski's villa,
– visit the castle in Janowiec,
– get on a bike and follow the red trail on the Kazimierz Dolny – Wąwolnica – Nałęczów – Wojciechów – Dąbrowica – Lublin route, or just a part of it,
– pedal 16 km to the stronghold in Żmijowiska,
– go on a kayaking trip on the Chodelka River, e.g. Szczekarków Kolonia Mill – Kazimierz Dolny, approx. 13 km,
– sunbathe on a nudist beach (the beach is periodically flooded by the Vistula River).
There are very interesting cultural events going on in Kazimierz during the summer season:
– the end of June is the National Festival of Folk Bands and Singers,
– mid-July – Kazimiernikejszyn, i.e. an event without a pin: not only musical, but also simply social,
– beginning of August – “Dwa Brzegi” Film and Art Festival,
– then "Wings over Kazimierz",
– beginning of September – Pardes Festival – Meetings with Jewish Culture Kazimierz Dolny/Janowiec
– in the summer months – Organ Festival, local products fair and many other events.
And if you prefer to avoid the crowds, come to Kazimierz after the season. It's intimate, charming and equally beautiful. Can you imagine these autumn walks among golden hills and gorges? Or winter evenings with a cup of tea on the mezzanine of our house?
