• Yellow trail from the pass, 3.1 km and rated very easy, is the shortest climb; the blue trail from the same spot is longer and harder
• No dogs past the reserve signs, even on a leash, and no campfires on the mountain itself; the pass has a marked fire spot and rest area
• Parking fills up in season: the big lot by the main road costs 20 zł a day (pay by QR code), and two smaller lots by the trailhead are free

Ślęża is a 718 m forested peak rising alone above the plain south-west of Wrocław, protected as a nature reserve. From Tąpadła Pass, the yellow trail is the shortest and easiest way up, 3.1 km to the top.

The summit has a stone church with a viewing balcony, a 12 m lookout tower, an ancient granite bear sculpture and the Dom Turysty hut. On clear days the views reach the Owl Mountains.
