Szklarska Poręba

Jeleniogórska Kotlina is often called the bicycle capital of Poland, and if we check the number of diverse bicycle routes it is hard not to agree.

The city of Jelenia Góra, as the focal point of the basin, gives you the opportunity to choose the direction and mountains you want to go. We should also not forget the number of cyclical cycling events that take place in the area and among the most important are:

bikemarathon series organized by Grabek Promotion; Szklarska Poręba, Jelenia Góra, Kowary, Świeradów-Zdrój, Złotoryja, Janowice Wielkie
UCI Maja Włoszczowska Race - international MTB race for professionals under the patronage of Maja Włoszczowska herself
Up Hill Sniezka - a race that takes less than 1 minute to sign up for and involves riding an MTB bicycle to the highest mountain peak in Giant Mountains and the highest peak in Poland that you can ride a bicycle to!
Szklarska Poręba Bicycle Festival - a week-long bicycle festival including a variety of cycling competitions and side events. The program includes a 4-day MTB stage race, downhill, enduro, BMX/trial shows, water jumping, MTB marathon, road race, as well as a bike fair and outdoor film screenings.
Bicycle Bieg Piastów in Jakuszychy - another event of the association known before all for cross-country skiing, but this time for fans of two wheels. What's worth noting is that the event is growing in popularity every year, including starts on electric bikes.

Route

Single Track Giants

The Olbrzymy Bicycle Range includes routes located in three municipalities: Jelenia Góra, Piechowice and Podgórzyn. The range is MTB paths, or paths designed for mountain bikers, to ride mountain bikes. The Giants Bike Range is located in quite high mountains - you are unlikely to find a paved boardwalk or a completely flat path by the river. Even on the blue routes there are more difficult elements that a less advanced rider will have to bypass. There are also climbs on the blue routes: they may require some physical fitness. It is, of course, mandatory to ride with a helmet, and it is also a good idea to wear pads.

70 km

Singiel Track Szklarska Poręba

Singiel Track Szklarska Poreba

Singiel Track Szklarska Poreba fraction of the routes that are part of the cycling routes in the Jizera Mountains and was marked with the number 14.

Fragments of this single are some of the few singles in the Jeleniogórska Kotlina that you can go to even with a 6-year-old. Yes, driving the entire 22 km requires fitness, because the elevation is 460 m, and technique, because the descent from Wysoki Kamień is already technically more difficult, but many sections can be easily driven with children.

Convenient conditions

It is also important to emphasize that the single track is wide and very well shaped and hardened so that even in heavy rainfall the bike's grip is very good. The views and landscape of the entire single make it really worth coming here.

The total length is 21.8 kilometers, of which 14 kilometers leads along a specially adapted single-track route, consisting of 11 sections and leads through the Jizera Mountains.

The route has 3 access points

Szklarska Poręba Górna railroad station - to this point is only 1.5 km directly from Interferie Sport Hotel Bornit from where you can go by bike even with children.
szklarska Poreba Jakuszyce railroad stop
STANISŁAW quartz mine. At each access point there is a board with a map and regulations, a stationary pump with a set of bicycle tools.

Interestingly, part of the route (access to Jakuszyce or exit from Jakuszyce) can be overcome by train.

Get to know

Jakuszyce - Jizera Mountains

Jakuszyca Glade in the Jizera Mountains - a skiing paradise but also an ideal place for cycling recreation

Jakuszyce, as a district of Szklarska Poręba, has been famous for many years, especially in winter for people who do cross-country skiing. It is here that the World Cup in cross-country skiing was held and here that one of the largest cross-country skiing events in Europe, the Bieg Piastów, is held every year.

The ideal route

For beginners

Jakuszyce also has something that is not found in many mountains, namely very little undulating terrain. This means that after arriving by bicycle, car, train at Polana Jakuszycka, we can do 30 km and have only 200 m of elevation gain in our legs. For those who are new to biking, this is an ideal place to get acquainted with mountain biking trails, but without having much technical skill.

Bicycle

Land

Most of the bicycle routes in the "Bicycle Land" because that's how the region is called lead along forest roads (mostly gravel roads) and rocky mountain paths, so covering them won't be difficult, but it's worth having a mountain or trekking bike.

The total length of the routes is changing all the time, but their number is already more than 450 kilometers.

Bicycle routes in the Jizera Mountains and the Giant Mountains in the area of Szklarska Poręba have special signage; a white background in a black border that is the silhouette of the cyclist, the route number and directional arrows. The signs are painted on trees, stones, walls or plaques.

Safety

some tips

Remember, too, that your safety depends on your skills, fitness, supply of water, something to eat, but also on the technical condition of the bike. In the mountains, the bicycle must be 100% functional, and often the kind of bike we ride on dirt roads in the lowlands does not pass the test even in Jakuszyce and the Jizera Mountains.

Single Track Świeradów-Zdrój

Single Track under Smrek/ Świeradów-Zdrój this is where the beginning of ...

Already in 2011 the IMBA organization creates a ranking of the best places to practice mountain biking, and in 7th place are the bike paths in Świeradów-Zdrój and the area around NovyMesta in the Czech Republic. From there, large-scale construction of new paths across the country began. Anyone who enjoys MTB biking even a little bit has been here at least once to see how these "famous paths" look.

For those who like dynamic driving

From Interferie Sport Hotel Bornit in Szklarska Poręba to the start of the bike paths near the gondola railroad to Stóg Izerski is about 20 km and the time to cover the route is about 20 minutes.

The trails below Smrek are a unique project in Central Europe. It is a thoughtfully designed network of forest paths for cyclists, which are built and maintained according to strict rules with maximum respect for the surrounding nature. The paths are designed for very dynamic driving, and yet they are safe.

On the Polish and Czech sides

The entire trail network was built in three phases and now offers more than 88 kilometers of fun-filled riding. On the Polish side we have such routes as Czerniawska Kopa 15,3 km, Zajêcznik 14,75 km, while on the Czech side we have 11 routes with a total length of about 60 km.

There is something for everyone

The trails are unidirectional and distinguished by color according to difficulty, as are the pistes. Cyclists, depending on their abilities, can choose a route of varying lengths.

There is something for everyone, whether a complete beginner or an experienced cyclist. The project is a joint effort of the municipalities of Świeradów-Zdrój, NovéMěsto under Smrek, LázněLibverda, Frýdlant, as well as the Świeradów-Zdrój Forest District and the State Forests of the Czech Republic, and has been co-financed by funds from the European Union.

Single Track under the Smrek

Single Track under Smreek deserves a very big plus because of the extensive catering infrastructure along the singles route itself, where, in addition to taking advantage of the gastronomy, you can repair minor defects, wash your bike or wait for transportation to the starting point.
