The Dalai Lama stayed with us, one of our houses was the seat of the president of Jelenia Góra before the war, and in the 1960s a very famous British writer lived here. Montanum's most colorful time came when Alma Yoray came to the Karkonosze Mountains in the 1980s. The dancer, choreographer and Vipassana teacher from the United States sensed a special energy in this corner of the Jizera Mountains. And you must know that she was looking for a place where she could open a Buddhist meditation center in many places in Eastern Europe. However, it was in the oldest houses in Przesieka that she conducted yoga, tai-chi and meditation workshops for over two decades, and at that time our village was visited by real celebrities from the Buddhist community. I remember Alma. My parents were friends with her. When she passed away, the houses in Bukowy Gaj stood empty for a decade, but today, together with Jasia, we want to breathe life again into this extraordinary place with a colorful history. We do not teach meditation ourselves, but our homes are still associated with its practice and Buddhism. We invite groups to all kinds of workshops, for which Montanum will be a soothing background - both villas have 2 huge rooms for yoga and more. We also invite families and groups of friends: we will be an excellent base for hiking, we will serve you incredibly delicious cuisine and invite you to the sauna and hot tub. We believe that you will find peace in Bukowy Grove, which will stay with you for a long time.

You will sleep in one of the most beautiful corners of Przesieka, i.e. Bukowy Gaj. In one of two houses that have amazing stories that we do not forget and try to cherish.

Both houses are located on the same plot, approximately 50 m from each other.

Will you be hungry? Absolutely not! We regularly organize concerts and tasting dinners at Montanum. We are known for our amazing cuisine, we guarantee that the meals you get from us will be remembered for a long time. We serve mainly vegetarian dishes, made from local products. You can eat here not only breakfast, but also dinner.

We hope you will be bored, but in a positive way. You can go to the forest, sit by a mountain stream or swing in a hammock and read a book while listening to the rustling Podgórna stream. In addition, go to the mountains, because Przesieka is an excellent base, many mountain trails intersect here. Guests have at their disposal a sauna and a hot tub where you can swim in winter. If anyone would like cold water in the summer, there is a beautiful mountain stream flowing 300 meters from the place where you will live. It is also an ideal place for winter swimming.

We have not prepared special attractions for children, but if you take your kids with you on a group trip, they will definitely like it. It's hard to get bored in the Karkonosze Mountains, you just need to organize your time well.

Both houses have optical fiber, so the Internet does not disappoint us. We cordially invite you to group work-alongs. You will find work space in dining rooms or living rooms.
