UPDATE 6.10.2025
On 25 June 2025, an official agreement was signed with the Bystrzyca Kłodzka Forest District – State Forests, thanks to which Kamienna Góra, Spalona and Lasówka are now officially open to climbers! 🧗♂️
This is the result of joint efforts and the vision of local representatives of Nasze Skały, local climbers, the forest district and a botanist.
👏 This is a huge step forward – after years of effort, Kamienna Góra, one of the most important bouldering areas in the Sudetes, has been legalised!
🌿 The area is also protected under the Natura 2000 network – habitat 8220 ‘Silicate rock walls and cliffs with Androsacion vandelii communities’.

🍀 Botanical expertise has shown that the most valuable parts of the habitat are located outside the area with existing boulders – therefore, climbing is legal, but it is not permitted to open new routes that require cleaning the rocks
⚠️ Due to the high intensity of climbing traffic in Kamienna Góra, and the consequent adverse effect on the condition of the forest and the relationship between the Bystrzyca Kłodzka Forest District (Kamienna Góra Forestry) and climbers, we would like to remind you of some basic rules regarding behaviour in the area.
🚫 The following apply:
- ban on burning fires in the forest,
- no staying in the sector after dark,
- order to leave cars only in permitted areas,
- an obligation to clean boulders from chalk after climbing!
🅿️ Suitable parking spots are marked on the map 🗺️.
During the 2015 site visit, stones were designated where climbing is permitted. All these stones will be included in this topo. It is forbidden to clear new stones without the permission of the Forestry Commission!
⚠️ In July 2015, at the request of the Forestry Inspectorate, we requested the RDOŚ Wrocław to interpret the nature protection regulations with regard to climbing in the Kamienna Góra area. The response of the RDOŚ is not clear, nevertheless it indicates the dangers of bouldering and the basic rules of behaviour.
🌲 The Forestry Commission has approached us with a proposal to conclude an agreement regulating climbing in Kamienna Góra, which will include the following necessary conditions, i.e:
- apart from PZA, the Bystrzyca Kłodzka Commune will also be a party to the agreement;
- making and accepting by the Forest Inspectorate the natural inventory of the 8220 habitat by a phytosociologist specialist in terms of indicating places designated for climbing; the cost of making the expert opinion will be borne by the interested party;
- formulation of rules and regulations for the use of the said area by climbers together with the definition of the civil and legal liability of the users of the area in case of dangerous events and accidents;
- marking the area in question with a view to making the area available for climbing.
