Pohulanka is a small, easy-going summit right in the heart of Karpacz — a perfect goal for a relaxed walk when you fancy a taste of the mountains without an all-day trek. It's a place where the town gently blends into forest, and forest opens onto views across the Karkonosze Intra-Mountain Depression.
The hill sits in the eastern part of this depression, between the centre of Karpacz, Wilcza Poręba and Skalne Osiedle. Its slopes are partly wooded, offering welcome shade in summer, while the northern side is flanked by typical Karpacz guesthouses — so a stroll here feels like a walk between nature and resort life. In winter, the southern slope becomes a floodlit ski run with a button lift, making Pohulanka a popular spot for evening skiing among locals and visitors alike.
How to get to the summitThe name Pohulanka (German: Die Lehne) has long been linked to recreation for the people of Karpacz — both summer and winter — making it a small but meaningful point on the town's tourist map.
