Small group of rocks close to the main ridge in Karkonosze mountain, with superb view, basically 360 degrees. Absolutely best way to get there is to hike from schronisko Śląski Dom to the west, following red trail, called Główny Szlak Sudecki, which is the longest trail in Polish Sudetes mountains. If you do that hike, you will walk right on the edges of two major post-glacial cirques with lakes in both of them. Słonecznik is also a junction of two other trail, a yellow and green ones - both leave different starting points in the town of Karpacz, then cross each other in place called Polana, and from there, again following different paths (the yellow one passes another fantastic group of rocks called Pielgrzymy), so they can be used as a round trip from Karpacz. But be aware, that some trails are likely to be closed for some parts of the year, due to different subjects of nature protection (the green trail for the whole of April and May, due to protection of black grouse), also the red trail follows different path in winter, as it would be too dangerouos to walk on huge amounts of snow overhanging the ridges o mentioned cirques.

Large, vast space at the footsteps of Sniezka - the highest peak in Sudetes, limited by post-glacial cirques. Famous for peat bogs and small norwegian style tundra-like habitats.

Have been here this weekend... even if the path was frozen and there was quite a wind, the hike was great..

This is a nice place to visit while in Karpacz. Please note this is a pretty historical dam with mountains surrounding it. There's a restaurant where you can chill overlooking the dam.
