Rudniki: Hotels and Accommodation

Rudniki is home to the Lipówka quarry, a geological and natural heritage site in the municipality of Rędziny.

Nature

From the 19th century until 1989, Lipówka was an open-pit mine where Upper Jurassic limestone was extracted. After mining ended, the quarry developed into a mosaic of diverse terrestrial and aquatic habitats. Today, it features limestone cliffs and lakes that formed in the areas left behind by the former mining operations. Visitors can walk and cycle around the Lipówka quarry; there is also a pump track nearby.
