Discover Muszyna: Gardens, Outdoor Activities and Craft

Muszyna offers a variety of reasons to visit: a vast landscape setting, gardens that engage the senses, opportunities for outdoor activities and places for creative work. Rather than defining the town by just one type of holiday, you can first consider which experiences matter most for your trip.

Landscape as the setting for your trip

The town and municipality of Muszyna lie entirely within Poprad Landscape Park. Established in 1987, the park covers more than 54,000 hectares. Its scale gives your choice of destination a landscape context that extends beyond individual leisure activities. If you would like to include nature in your holiday plans, you can consider Muszyna from this perspective, too. At the same time, the town offers other themes that you can weigh independently when planning your trip.

Gardens that engage all the senses

Muszyna’s Sensory Gardens are designed to engage the senses of smell, sight, touch, hearing and taste. The five senses provide a clear point of reference for how this garden experience differs from a simple scenic view or a purely sporting outing. As you plan, you can consider whether this kind of experience should be a focus of its own, or whether you would rather prioritise outdoor activities, water-based leisure or crafts. This lets you choose according to your interests, rather than relying on a general idea of what a stay in Muszyna should involve.

Active experiences with different profiles

The bike park around Sankolandia features two downhill trails with different levels of difficulty and around 100 sculpted turns.

Another option for outdoor activity is the 3.1-kilometre blue hiking trail, which runs from Muszyna to the national border. Its length, trail colour and destination give you specific details to consider when planning your trip.

Ceramics, art and water-based leisure

Dom Dawnego Rzemiosła hosts ceramics workshops as well as regular art and ceramics classes for children and adults. This makes crafts a distinct option for planning your day: the focus here is on creative work, rather than a trail or a downhill run. If you are travelling with children, the fact that children are specifically mentioned as participants sets these classes apart from the other activities. The classes are also open to adults.

The Zapopradzie Recreation and Sports Centre includes a water recreation complex with wave caves, a whirlpool and slides. There is also a children’s splash pool with fairytale fountains and aquazorbing. This gives the centre a distinct focus on water and recreation. Alongside the classes, bike park and hiking trail, it shows how varied the interests you can build your stay around may be. For children, creative classes and water-based leisure are two different kinds of experience to choose from.
