Psary – Cycling, Trails and Active Days
Accommodation in Psary
Psary offers several distinct ways to enjoy active days on holiday: a paved walking path and playground and sports facilities at Iskry Psary Stadium, as well as cycling events that started and finished at the stadium. There is also a launch site for paragliders and hang gliders on Góra Siewierska in the municipality of Psary. If you are looking for a holiday apartment, you can first decide which activity you want to shape your days around.
Paths and facilities at the stadium
A paved walking path was built in front of the stadium, running from Wiejska Street to Żurawiniec Park. It therefore leads from a named street to a specific destination, while the other facilities focus on activity at the stadium itself. An outdoor fitness area was built alongside the playground at the stadium; a fully equipped grass volleyball court was added at the other end of the grounds. A playground with safety surfacing was also built there. The walking path is thus distinct from the facilities focused on equipment or ball games.
The municipal description lists six pieces of equipment at the skatepark in Psary. Anyone using this equipment must wear a helmet and a full set of protective gear throughout their ride. Check the current rules before using the skatepark. Planning for a visit should therefore take into account both the number of pieces of equipment and the safety gear requirements.
Cycling events linked to the stadium
At one edition of Bike Atelier Road, the start and finish were at the LKS Iskra Psary stadium. The municipality of Psary has hosted a stage of the Bike Atelier MTB Maraton since the event began; its start and finish were at Iskry Psary Stadium each time. This means there are two cycling events linked to the stadium: Bike Atelier Road and a mountain bike marathon stage. The 2024 edition of the MTB stage included a Family distance for children up to and including age 14, who rode with accompanying adults. The route description for that edition mentions varied surfaces, numerous single tracks, steep climbs and short, steep descents. Two questions can help with planning: the Family distance combines an age limit with the requirement to be accompanied; the route features give an idea of the stage’s terrain. Check the categories for the current edition before taking part.
Air sports on Góra Siewierska
There is a launch site for paragliders and hang gliders on Góra Siewierska, within the municipality of Psary. According to the description, the hill, which is about 40 metres high, is suitable for beginners. Launches take place in southerly winds with slight deviations; powered paragliders are also possible. The landing field is described as fairly large and has some shrubs. In winds above 5 m/s, ridge soaring is possible, and the summit can be reached by car. Wind is a specific factor in planning here: ridge soaring depends on the stated wind speed. Check the current conditions for use before planning a specific launch.
