What travelers are saying
- KookieherePrague, Czech Republic500 contributionsThe tallest mountain of Czech republic offers beautiful views. You can see the surrounding mountains, lakes, Obří důl, and other interesting sights of both the Czech and the Polish side of Krkonoše mountains from above. You cross the Czech-Polish border (so expect constant beeping of everybody's phones) and you can discover both the views of the Czech sights and Česká poštovna on the Czech side of the mountain and the beautiful lakes and Polish meterological station on the Polish side. Unfortunately that's what kind of disturbs the armosphere of this beautiful mountain and the surrounding nature - Česká poštovna is not a very nice looking container and the meteoroligal station in the futuristic style of the past regime looks like UFO from an 80s sci-fi movie. A typical mountain log cabin would look much better in their place, especially with a real restaurant inside, where people could get refreshments and also a real hearty lunch after climbing all the way up - because the only option here is a small room with about five tables in Česká poštovna and all you can get there is a hot dog, a biscuit and some bottled water. The situation is exactely the same in the buffet at the cable car station. You can take a comfortable ride all the way up on the top of the Sněžka, but the station is not prepared for crowds - the entrance is just a small hall with doors and a narrow staircase. During our visit in May a sharp wind was blowing on the mountain and it was quite cold there, definitely take some warmer clothes with you even if it was warm where you came from. There were even huge pieces of frozen snow and lots of mud, sometimes it was difficult to even get to the observation spots. So even if you're taking the cable car up, don't forget solid shoes - you will be walking over stones, snow, ice and mud.Written May 20, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ClogsPoland2,959 contributionsVery nice old wooden church, originally from 12th century Norway, transplanted to Poland, lovely old details remain, cozy ambiance, comfortable place for quiet reflection. The grounds offer a little bit more to see and ponder, one or two memorials, an old graveyard and an excellent panoramic view. Good visit.Written February 18, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

Great idea as attraction for the city. Its quite addictiveWritten June 26, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It tells stories from Poland part of Krkonoše, which are so nice and thrilling. Models of creatures are imposant. If you’re going to Karpacz you must visit this museum. For foreigners, they have tablets with translation of the legends and stories which was very helpful.Written July 9, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- jedrus7Wroclaw, Poland573 contributionsThis small Museum created in 1995 from the collection of Henryk Tomaszewski, a famous Polish choreographer. The collection presents toys since the eighteenth century until the twentieth century, including the dolls from Japan, Mexico, Australia and other countries.
This is a good place to visit with kids during rainy day. The collection of toys is very beautiful and inspring. The only problem is the fact that the museum has a convenctional and traditional character: all toys are behind glass windoss, and you are not allowed to touch those which are exposed. Kids are quickly bored, and actually adults are more interested. I am wondering why they do not open interactive section, where kids can play with the toys. All instructions are in Polish.Written August 29, 2014This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- endrju_74Ipswich, UK4,851 contributionsSmall group of rocks close to the main ridge in Karkonosze mountain, with superb view, basically 360 degrees. Absolutely best way to get there is to hike from schronisko Śląski Dom to the west, following red trail, called Główny Szlak Sudecki, which is the longest trail in Polish Sudetes mountains. If you do that hike, you will walk right on the edges of two major post-glacial cirques with lakes in both of them. Słonecznik is also a junction of two other trail, a yellow and green ones - both leave different starting points in the town of Karpacz, then cross each other in place called Polana, and from there, again following different paths (the yellow one passes another fantastic group of rocks called Pielgrzymy), so they can be used as a round trip from Karpacz. But be aware, that some trails are likely to be closed for some parts of the year, due to different subjects of nature protection (the green trail for the whole of April and May, due to protection of black grouse), also the red trail follows different path in winter, as it would be too dangerouos to walk on huge amounts of snow overhanging the ridges o mentioned cirques.Written December 8, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Pine_travellerWarsaw, Poland133 contributionsAmazing, fantastic! Lots of interesting information, served with highest care for a detail and well presented. The museum takes us back in history, to see how the mountain range was created and what changes it underwent during many historic plot twists. Definitely recommendedWritten September 6, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Jon BBrixham, UK284 contributionsA great little museum,jam packed with winter sports "stuff".It was a while ago I was here so maybe is newer items ! But I remember Gold medals and early winter clothing along with a few very early "Bob ski's" (and crash helmits) made from cork.Many items from Polish past sporting stars (winter games)
It is small but I think I saw a wheelchair lift ? To me it looked a converted chalet,the display rooms are well laid out so a chair could get around..Written August 17, 2014This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Lots of old and unusual consoles and computers, some connected and playable as classics like contra or street fighter. Entrance is under 10,- per person if you come in a bigger group. I would recommend if you dig such stuff.Written May 1, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Marcin S1 contributionComplete disappointment! A waste of time and money. Don't be mislead by its name - it has nothing to do with fairy tales or cartoons. It's rather a small outdoor playground you pay for!Written July 27, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
