Saneczkowa is a small but charming peak right in the heart of Karpacz — a perfect goal for a short, relaxed walk when you don't have time or energy for the big Karkonosze trails. It's the kind of hill locals treat as their backyard, and visitors are pleasantly surprised to discover.
The summit sits in the eastern part of the Karkonosze Intra-Mountain Depression, between Karpacz Górny and Płóczki. The Dziki Potok stream flows around it from the west, and to the north it connects with Husycka Górka. Built from Karkonosze granite, Saneczkowa doesn't offer dramatic rock formations, but it charms with its calm, forested character and views of the surrounding hills. In winter, the slope transforms into a real attraction — it's home to the longest toboggan run in Karpacz, stretching 1650 m with a 114 m elevation difference, drawing families and winter thrill-seekers. In summer, it's peaceful, with forest paths perfect for a quiet stroll away from the crowds.
How to reach the summitThe name isn't a coincidence — sledges have long slid down this very slope towards the town, making Saneczkowa one of Karpacz's winter symbols.
