Opening hours

Mount Żar is one of the most recognisable attractions in the Little Beskids, situated right next to Lake Żywiec and just a dozen or so minutes from the Lake View Żywiec Resort & Spa ****. It is a place that delights visitors not only with its spectacular views, but also with the wide range of opportunities for active leisure.

You can reach the summit comfortably by off-road cable car, which is an interesting attraction in its own right. From the top, there is a panoramic view of the lake, the surrounding mountain ranges and the region’s picturesque villages. It is the perfect spot for taking photos, enjoying a moment of tranquillity or admiring the sunsets.

Mount Żar is also a paradise for sports enthusiasts and adrenaline seekers. Paragliding is particularly popular here, offering a completely different perspective on the Beskids. There are also cycle routes, walking trails and facilities for those seeking active recreation.

An additional attraction is the unique pumped-storage power station, whose reservoir at the summit is a distinctive feature of the landscape. This combination of nature, technology and recreation makes Mount Żar a unique destination that is popular with tourists.

The proximity of this attraction means that a stay at Lake View Żywiec Resort & Spa **** can easily be enhanced with unforgettable experiences and outdoor activities, surrounded by some of the most beautiful views in the region.
