September turned out to be a little bit more fun than usual for class 3C, as we finally managed to go on an integration trip, although it was more like a history lesson.
First, we visited the Kłodzko Fortress and began an outdoor game, in which we were divided in two groups: Prussia and Austria. It was a great lesson on the Thirty Years’ War for us as we could understand what exactly was going on at that time. Later that day we went on a night sightseeing tour through Kłodzko, quite exhausted after the outdoor game. Our guide, however, made it really interesting and eventful. By ‘eventful’ I mean the sudden downpour catching us at the end of our walk J.
Wednesday meant hiking in the Stołowe Mountains, to be specific – Szczeliniec Wielki (the highest peak of the range) and the picteresque labyrinth in the Błędne Skały. It was really challenging for some of our classmates, especially the ones with claustrophobia. Our guide was very supportive of us, showing us the most breathtaking landscapes. In the evening we visited the Kłodzko underground route where we could feel the atmosphere of the bygone times in the town .
On Thursday we went to the majestic Książ Castle in Wałbrzych with its Palm House. Moreover, we visited the Church of Peace in Świdnica – an amazing wooden Baroque temple.
Finally, we had an enjoyable hiking experience in the Czeck Rock Town in Adrspach, one of the largest rock towns in Central Europe.
Overall, the trip was very educational and eye-opening, showing us a big part of the Polish history as well as some of the most beautiful rock formations .
