A beautiful wooden church built here in 1753. Built here away from the lake (it was previously in Tęgoborze) because it was previously flooded by the lake (apparently some say that the faithful sailed to that church in kayaks!). Great views from the church!

An incredible view from Szpilówka (516m), especially from the observation tower here above the treetops. This tower, it turns out, is the highest such tower in the region (34m high). From here, there is a view of the Beskid Wyspowy, Beskid Sądecki and Pogórze Różnowskie.

The tower is 33 meters high. And the views are amazing. With good visibility you can see the Tatras.

Quite a steep climb, but the castle and views are worth the effort.

There is parking on the back road which is then a fairly level walk to the tower. If you park by the restaurant on the main road it is a steep & muddy when wet climb up to the site.

When the weather is good, you have a great view of the High Tatras.

The castle is almost completely rebuilt, a beautiful view of the Dunajec and Zakliczyn

Melsztyn Castle was restored in 2022 and again in 2023 when the roof on the residential tower was completed. The castle can now be visited again without restrictions. Entry is free and possible at any time because the entire area is under video surveillance.
