Wysowa-Zdrój offers several specific points of interest for a stay: a mineral water outlet on the edge of the spa park, the history of the drinking hall and trails with different focuses. When looking for a holiday apartment, you can consider whether to focus on mineral water and local history, Nordic walking, horse riding trails or Lemko cuisine.

Mineral Water and Spa History

The Franciszek outlet is a 1.61% bicarbonate-chloride-sodium mineral spring containing bromide and boron. It lies within a distinctive structure on the edge of the spa park. If you are interested in mineral waters, this outlet offers a specific starting point: its name, composition and location all come together here.

The mineral waters of Wysowa were recognized as therapeutic waters in 1963. They emerge as springs or are accessed through boreholes. Springs and boreholes are different methods of accessing the waters, while the recognition describes the historical status of the mineral waters.

Józef I is the oldest mineral water outlet in Wysowa and was established in 1921. The mineral waters were recognized as therapeutic waters in 1963; that same year, the previous drinking hall building burned down. The mineral water drinking hall was built in 2006. These dates relate to different events: the establishment of an outlet, the recognition of the waters and the architectural history of the drinking hall.

For orientation, these offer different perspectives: Franciszek is notable for its composition and location by the spa park, while Józef I stands out for its age and establishment in 1921. The 1963 recognition applies to Wysowa’s mineral waters; the dates concerning the drinking hall relate to its architectural history.

Trails and Activities

The Szlak Przemysłu Uzdrowiskowego Wysowej (Wysowa Spa Industry Trail) runs through the spa park. Its name itself refers to the spa industry and connects the trail’s theme with its location in the park. Wysowa also has Nordic walking trails with rest stops. Here you can choose between a themed route in the spa park and a trail network with rest stops.

Marked horse riding trails lead from Wysowa to Blechnarka, Ropki, Hańczowa and Regietów. Rest stops are a point of reference for Nordic walking, while the horse riding trails are defined by their named destinations. If you are choosing between the two activities, you can decide based on whether you prefer rest stops or specific route destinations. Check the current condition of the horse riding trails before using them.

The Osława equestrian centre in Wysowa offers riding lessons for children; contact the operator directly for current dates. The high ropes course at Ośrodek Zacisze is an attraction for adults and children alike. If you would like to visit, check access arrangements in advance.

Lemko Cuisine

The “Gościnna Chata” regional inn in Wysowa serves Lemko cuisine. This provides a clearly defined culinary focus alongside the mineral waters and trails. Menus and opening arrangements may change; check both before your visit.
