Kapias Gardens. Beautiful gardens like from a fairy tale!
Kapias Gardens is a wonderful attraction in the Goczałkowice-Zdrójhealth resort. We love it! Do you want to magically move to the farthest corners of Europe and even the world? No plane, no ticket, straight to paradise? Here it is possible, because it is such a magical place, very liked by the inhabitants of Silesia. Kapias gardens were born from a passion for nature, owners from bare land several years ago conjured up wonderful show gardens here, available free of charge to everyone.
Kapias Gardens like from a fairy tale!
And these gardens are like a fairy tale, they invite you for walks, inspiration and delight. And there is really something to admire here. The area is vastand everyone will find a place for themselves. Kapias Gardens, located near the route No. 1, leading from Tychy to Bielsko-Biała, has recently become a very fashionable and eagerly visited place. At the Gardening, show gardens were created, open to the public - a great plant oasis, rich and wonderfully arranged, with great ingenuity and knowledge.
It is a magical corner, very attractive at any time of the year, because they have been set up and arranged in such a way that their individual fragments are an ornament throughout the year. In addition, there is a tasty restaurant, an atmospheric café and a very well-equipped garden shop. Kapias Gardens made a huge impression on us, from the youngest to the oldest, for me it was an extraordinary adventure and a feast for the eyes, because I love gardens, and these are simply extraordinary!

Kapias Gardens Cafe & Restaurant
Kapias gardens are teeming with life in summer, so I recommend autumn or even winter, because the gardens are year-round, and you can warm up in an interestingly arranged cafe or in a tasty restaurant. You do not have to look for inspiration for your own garden here, just let yourself be invited for a fantastic walk. Even a few hours, because the terrain is huge, and time passes here very quickly.
It passes imperceptibly among tall grasses rustling in the wind, in a mysterious hobbit house, on an Italian patio, in a country backyard or in a birch gaik. You have to see it all with your own eyes! We love this place and I would like to come here much more often, although we have already walked here several times.
