Wieżyca

         Do you know, which is the highest peak on Kashubia (and not only there, but also on all Pomerania)? It’s Wieżyca (Wieżëca). It has got 329 m.n.p.m.(about 1079 feet). The peak is all overgrown with beech forest – it is a nature reserve.

         Rain hasn’t stopped raining yet, but this morning we wear waterproof jackets and betake ourselves on the trek.

         We came to like walking across woods recently. There are just a few people on the hiking trail, around us. The path is uprising gently. In the winter, it is possible to do the cross – country skiing here, or just skiing, because there is a ski lift and a ski slope over here.

         Half an hour later, we reach the peak. Here, in 1997, was built a lookout tower . ,,It reminds those Japanese pagodas, doesn’t it?” – I say to Lama, looking on the light construction.

         The view from the highest floor is breathtaking. Whole surrounding area is outstretched under our foots.

         ,,Wow, don’t look down!” – I cry to Lama, sighting, that she became white as a sheet. I quickly catch her by the arm, and we come down.

         ,,It’s an acrophobia” – she say to me. - ,,Mountains are incredible, but I really prefer to stay on the ground!”
