Trail of the Eagle's Nests — Magnificent Castles of Kazimierz Wielki and beautiful Grottos and Rocks
Picturesque Jura with a hint of adrenaline - Jurassic Fortresses Trail
Burg Ostrężnik (Polish Zamek Ostrężnik) is a castle ruin near Janów, not far from Częstochowa in the Kraków-Częstochowa Jura. The castle belongs to the Eagle's Nests castles, which secured the border between the Kingdom of Poland and the Holy Roman Empire in the 14th century. It is located in the Silesian Voivodeship, but historically belongs to Lesser Poland. (Wikipedia)

Ostrężnik Castle is a mysterious ruin hidden in the forest near the village of Siedlec, on a limestone hill 380 m above sea level. Although little is known about its history, it is believed that it was built in the early 14th century and may never have been completed. Fragments of walls, ramparts and the outline of the former castle grounds have survived to this day. Right next to it is the Ostrężnicka Cave, which is often visited by speleologists. The place is shrouded in legends of robber knights and insurgent treasures. A forest path leads to the ruins - an MTB or trekking bike with good grip will be the best.

Riding the so-called: path along the Warta; is hardcore - after such a trip the bike is only good for repairs /at the bicycle factory along the route/. I've been there. I do not recommend.
