The northern part of Kraków is where a series of defensive fortifications called the Eagles’ Nests Trail begins. Only 9 km away from the Kościuszko Hotel stands one of the first Medieval strongholds, the Korzkiew Castle, providing a gateway into the Ojców National Park with its historical and natural marvels. The hotel’s location also makes it easy to visit such places as the Wieliczka Saltmine, the Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum or Zakopane.
