In Muszyna, sensory gardens and ceramics activities meet water-based recreation, a bike park, and hiking trails. The town and municipality lie entirely within Poprad Landscape Park, whose scenic setting shapes the area. You can choose which experiences to focus on during your stay based on your interests and the conditions for each visit.

Muszyna in Poprad Landscape Park

Poprad Landscape Park was established in 1987 and covers more than 54,000 hectares. The fact that the town and municipality of Muszyna are entirely within the park gives the area a clear connection to its landscape. In addition to this natural setting, visitors choosing Muszyna as a destination will find specific activities that differ considerably from one another: from a garden designed to engage several senses to ceramics courses and a marked hiking trail.

Gardens, crafts, and activities

The Sensory Gardens of Muszyna are designed to engage all five senses: smell, sight, touch, hearing, and taste. The focus is therefore not solely on what can be seen; the other senses are also part of the design concept. For visitors interested in gardens and different ways of experiencing their surroundings, this is a distinct highlight among Muszyna’s offerings.

The bike park around Sankolandia has two downhill trails of varying difficulty and around 100 shaped turns. The different difficulty levels are a straightforward basis for choosing a trail; the number of turns is another feature of the park. Check its operating status before your visit so your plans match the current conditions.

The Dom Dawnego Rzemiosła hosts ceramics workshops as well as regular art and ceramics courses. Activities are available for children and adults. If you want to do more than just look at ceramics and would like to try the craft, you can choose between a workshop and the regularly scheduled courses. As specific dates are important when planning a visit, we recommend checking the current course schedule.

The Zapopradzie Recreation and Sports Centre includes a water recreation complex with wave caves, a whirlpool, and slides. There is also a children’s paddling pool with fairytale fountains and aquazorbing. The seasonal difference is important when planning: the pools operate in summer, while additional attractions are offered year-round. Operating arrangements may change; before your visit, check which activities will be open on your chosen date.

If you’d rather cover a route on foot, consider the 3.1-kilometre blue hiking trail from Muszyna to the state border. Its starting point, destination, and length provide a clear reference for the route. Check the latest trail conditions before setting out on the blue trail.

Plan the focus of your visit

Each activity calls for different planning. For a ceramics course, the date matters; for the pools, it’s their summer operating season; and for the bike park, it’s whether it is currently open. For the hiking trail, check the conditions before setting out. If a particular activity is the main reason for your trip, take its specific requirements into account when planning. This way, you can choose Muszyna based on what you want to experience there, rather than treating the different activities as a fixed itinerary.
