Christmas in the mountains - Why is it worth it?

29.07.2025

For many people, Christmas in the mountains is the fulfillment of winter dreams - white peaks, crunching snow underfoot, and the scent of fresh spruce. More and more families are giving up cooking and cleaning at home, choosing to spend the holidays in a hotel or mountain cabin. Why does this idea attract so many? What is special about a Christmas trip to the mountains, and is it worth deciding on it?

Unique atmosphere and snow

In the mountains, you have a greater certainty of a white Christmas – there, snow blankets the forests, peaks, and atmospheric wooden cabins every year, creating a unique winter atmosphere.

Christmas in this setting is not only views like from a postcard but also sleigh rides on snowy trails, family skiing, or romantic moonlit walks.

In Szklarska Poręba, you will find various trails of the Ski Arena Szrenica and the nearby slope at Ski&Sun Świeradów Zdrój.

Stress-free holidays – relax and forget about daily chores

Imagine the holidays full of relaxation, where festive dishes, mountain snow, and wellness zone relaxation are all on-site – you will experience all this at Happy Valley Resort.

Our staff takes care of every detail: from a rich table with delicious cuisine to exceptional music and decorations. The View restaurant offers unforgettable mountain range views as a backdrop to feasting on holiday dishes and atmospheric live music.

Peace and quiet – only the Christmas atmosphere

Mountain towns are a refuge from city noise, and numerous hotels and guesthouses are enhanced with delicate Christmas decorations and fragrant Christmas trees. Moments with family by the fireplace, long conversations, and calmness become the priority here.

Choose Szklarska Poręba – you are guaranteed proximity to intimate cross-country trails and night skiing under the subtle light of lamps.

Stay in the mountains longer – Christmas and New Year's Eve in one

Dreaming of an extended winter vacation? Stay in the mountains from Christmas Eve until New Year's Eve and welcome the New Year in a highlander rhythm: from morning ski runs to late breakfasts and breathtaking mountain views.

This is the perfect solution to truly relax and gain fresh energy for the New Year.

Worth knowing!

It’s easy to create new rituals in the mountains: an evening by the fireplace with mulled wine, a sleigh ride through the snowy forest, a shared walk at dawn on a white trail, or breakfast with a view of the Karkonosze Mountains.
