Karpacz is an ideal starting point for visiting tourist attractions in the surrounding areas. The town lies almost at the heart of the region that is why nearly the same distances separate it from attractions located in western and eastern part of the Giant Mountains. It is not far to Jelenia Góra and Jelenia Góra Valley (Kotlina Jeleniogórska) where a picturesque route called the Valley of Palaces and Gardens goes. There are so many attractions and everyone can find something for themselves. Some of visitors will probably come back, because one trip is not enough!
