Przegibek Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

A picturesque pass with idyllic views of the Beskids. On the pass, there is a PTTK Shelter and the Przegibek hamlet belonging to the village of Rycerka Górna. These are just a few houses, but it is the highest-located settlement in the Żywiec Beskids.

From Bacówka to Wielka Rycerzowa

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The beginning of the route is quite a steep climb up the hill, along a picturesque glade. Later, the trail turns into the forest. Holding it, we will quickly reach the top, but remember that this is on the Slovak side of the border. On him, unfortunately, we can not count on the views, because the whole is overgrown with tall trees. On the way back, it is worth going to the ravine towards Mała Rycerzowa. It is impossible to enter at the top of this mountain, but in the above-mentioned ravine can sometimes meet a herd of grazing sheep.

Shepherd’s Hut on Rycerzowa

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The best way to reach Bacówka is by following the yellow or black trail from the village of Soblówka (there is also a car park). The building is located in the valley between Mala and Wielka Rycerzowa, so the route to it is worth ending with the visit of these mountains (but remember that the top of the second one is on the Slovak side of the border). Another interesting attraction is the Papal Trail running nearby. In Bacówka itself, it is worth trying blueberries with pancakes. There are also hammocks next to the hotel, and a toilet can be found on the lower floor.

Rycerka Valley

Highlight • Forest

The Rycerka Valley in Rycerka Dolna is a picturesque part of the Żywiec Beskids, ideal for those looking for peaceful trails and closeness to nature. The valley stretches along the Rycerka stream, is surrounded by forested hills and leads, among others, towards the Przegibek Pass and the shelter of the same name. It is a good place for family walks, bike trips or light trekking, especially in summer and autumn. It is worth taking comfortable shoes, because the trails can be rocky and slippery after rain in places, and in winter, footwear with good grip will be useful.

Przegibek Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Shelter on Przełęcz Przegibek is a climatic mountain shelter located in the Żywiec Beskids, at an altitude of 1000 m above sea level. It is a popular resting place for tourists hiking on the nearby trails, including Wielka Rycerzowa and Bendoszka Wielka. The shelter offers accommodation, hot meals and a homely atmosphere, and in winter it attracts ski tourers. It is a great place to regenerate your strength, from where there are beautiful views of the Beskid landscapes. It is worth having appropriate trekking shoes with you, especially in the winter season, when the trails may be icy.

Green Trail to Przegibek

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Green Trail to the Przegibek Pass straight to the PTTK Shelter from Rycerka Górna. Sharp uphill in places, but generally it is not a demanding trail. A wide rocky-gravel road
