Zywiec is not just a local brewery. It's a city located in the middle of the mountains and full of attractions. That's why check out what to do in Zywiec right now before you check out the beer museum.
.If you are considering an extended stay in or around Zywiec, especially during the holiday season, a trip to Lake Zywiec is a must. It is a reservoir created in 1966. In order for it to be created, several villages had to be depopulated and flooded, including Zarzecza, Tresna, and Stary Zywiec.
.In the part of Tresna that was not flooded, a dam and hydroelectric power plant were erected.
.Zywiec has a municipal beach, although it still lacks infrastructure. Therefore, plan an outing to the water with your own provisions.
A regatta is organized on the waters of Lake Zywiec in August, a memorial to Adam Banaszek, commander of the Bielsko Yacht Club, who died in 1992 while sailing the "Dar Bielsko".
.Zywiec is located in the middle of the Beskid Mountains. The Beskid Zywiec is of course surrounded by it, but right next to it you will also find the Beskid Slaski or Beskid Maly. If you go further south, you can hit the Slovak Beskid, while west of Zywiec is the Silesian-Moravian Beskid. If you're a novice hiker, it's worth climbing Skrzyczne, the highest peak in the Silesian Beskid, which rises more than 1,200 meters above sea level. In Beskid Maly you must climb, if that's the right term, Czupel (just 933 meters above sea level). In Beskid Zywiecki, Babia Gora awaits you with 1,725 meters above sea level, making it the highest peak in the area.
.There are several roads leading to the summit. One of them is the Akademiks' Pass. When deciding on this particular route, you need to be aware that it's a one-way road, and before the summit itself you will face a short climb over rocks using chains attached to the rocks. Therefore, if you manifest a fear of heights, you should consider a slightly longer, but easier route.
Genua, or Genova in Italian, is a city in the northwest of Italy in the Liguria region. It is famous for its large port on the Ligurian Sea and is the sixth largest city in the country. Genova's location cascades - walking from the port, it seems to climb higher and higher up the mountain, every now and then providing great places to enjoy the views and take photos. For this reason, in addition to traditional forms of transportation, there are many railroads and elevators to make getting around easier.
What to see in the city? The best place to start is the Old Port with the Galata Aquarium oceanarium and Maritime Museum, and see the Palazzo San Giorgio distinguished by its beautiful facade. A replica of the 17th-century Spanish galleon that starred in Roman Polanski's "Pirates" awaits tourists there. While in Genoa, take a stroll through the narrow streets called caruggi, viewing larger and smaller squares, historic churches and numerous palaces along the way. The most important church in the city is the 12th-century San Lorenzo Cathedral, with its rich collections of sacred art. Along and near Via Garibaldi Street one can find many historic palaces. 42 of them are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Genoa is also home to a 17th-century reconstruction of the house where Christopher Columbus lived.
.Genoa is located at the crossroads of highways - roads from Turin and Milan lead here. Near the city, or more precisely 7 kilometers from its center, is the Christopher Columbus Airport. The main train station is located about one kilometer from the old part of the city. Our buses stop not far from it - at Piazza della Vittoria 30 R summer INPS.
