Wleń has a spa microclimate and a sanatorium peace. The Bóbr Valley flows sluggishly here, it flows as always and nothing changes. Sometimes the water level is higher, other times it drops. From the garden, in the morning dew or evening pink, you can look at the castle. It has been towering over the town since the 13th century and still stands as it stood. Destroyed by the turmoil of history, it protects them from the noise. You can go for a walk to the ruins along the path of Saint Jadwiga Śląska and experience a night tour of the castle by the light of a torch. Extinct volcanoes from which you can observe the area, walking hills from which the Lower Silesian architecture of Wleń looks great, the palace, town hall, the 13th century church of St. Nicholas, kayaks and rafting on the Bóbr river, fly fishing, searching for agates, bread bought in the Wleń market, fruit and vegetable market, church bells pointing south. A screening at the small studio Kino za Rogiem. Idyllic provincial reality.
You can admire the dams with the Plichowice and Wrzeszczyn hydropower plants, which were built in the times without cranes and specialized machinery. You can walk along the trails, along the Bóbr or medieval villages and towns and not meet a living soul.
