July in Wisła is the essence of a mountain summer – the scent of the forest after the morning mist, long days full of greenery, and evenings with the gentle light of the setting sun. If you are planning a vacation in Vislow, here's how to spend a day that will stay with you for a long time. Without rush, without pressure – simply light, calm, and mindful.
1. Morning with a mountain breath
Start the day early – not to hurry, but to feel the silence of the mountains before the day begins. After breakfast in our restaurant, we recommend taking a walk towards the dam in Wisła Czarne. It is a light, pleasant route that you can complete on foot or by bike, ideal even for those who just want a stroll. At the end, there is a monumental dam, beautifully integrated into the mountain landscape.
If you feel like something longer, head to Cieńków – a peaceful route with a view and a stop by the fairytale cherry tree.
2. Forest bathing – more than a walk
The forests surrounding Vislow are a space where you can truly pause. Forest bathing, or shinrin-yoku, involves calmly immersing yourself in nature with all your senses. It's not about pace – it's about being.
For those who prefer more down-to-earth forms of relaxation: you can take a forest trip with your dog, or bring a basket and look for mushrooms or blueberries – our area has plenty. Nature invites closeness on its own terms.
3. Picnic with a local flavor
At our reception, you can order a ready-made picnic basket – prepared with convenience and taste in mind. We provide you with an elegant basket with equipment (porcelain, cutlery, glasses), a blanket, and a chosen set of snacks:
Romantic basket for 2 people: sandwiches, salted curds, vegetable sticks with dip, sweets, seasonal salad, fruits, and a bottle of wine or prosecco, and lemonade or tea.
Family basket 2+2: sandwiches, kabanos sausages, mini tortillas, sweets, salad, fruits, lemonade, tea, and mineral water.
With such equipment, just find a quiet spot – maybe on one of the forest clearings or by the stream shore – and simply... enjoy your time together.
4. Afternoon relaxation – for body and senses
After an active morning, it's worth stopping and taking care of your body. Our Wellness & SPA is a place created for relaxation – massages; sauna; jacuzzi, and if you dream of refreshing outdoors, we invite you to our pond with a rocky beach, with water temperatures from 20 to 26 degrees. At the reception, you can rent blankets, umbrellas, and sunbeds are available by the pond. Bathing in such a place is pure pleasure – without crowds, noise, or hurry.
5. Small (and big) family adventures
Summer in Vislow is a time when the youngest explorers have their hands (and feet) full of work. In the center, a few kilometers from Vislow, there is the Skolnity Station, where you will find attractions for children – from a fairytale playground to a mini-zoo, and a summer cable car with a view of Wisła.
If you are looking for a bigger dose of adrenaline, visit the Base Camp ropes park in Istebna – just a few minutes drive from Vislow, and fun for the whole family guaranteed. You can find more inspiration in our guide to attractions for children in Wisła.
6. Culture under the stars
July in Wisła is not only about nature – it's also a time for outdoor cultural events. Almost every summer Saturday and Sunday in the city, there are concerts, folk performances, fairs, and open-air cinema. Events take place both in the amphitheater and in the center of Wisła – often featuring artists from Poland and abroad. You can always find the current program here: Vislow Kulturalnie - what’s happening in the area - Vislow Resort.
7. Evening flavors – grill and music on the terrace
Although we do not organize bonfires (due to Vislow’s location in the Natura 2000 area), every Friday we invite you to grill evenings with a highlander band – it’s live music, regional flavors, and the unique atmosphere of the summer terrace.
On Saturdays, we prepare different sounds for you – every week a new musical setting – from chill acoustic music to rhythms that will warm up the evening. And if you prefer a quieter dinner – our restaurant invites you to the evening menu with a selection of wines and signature dishes based on seasonal products.
A July day in Wisła does not have to be intense to be unforgettable.
At Vislow, we believe the most beautiful memories are born from the moment – the calm, true, just yours moment.
We are waiting for you in the heart of the Beskids – in the slow rhythm.
