Spalski Grzybek

A wooden gazebo hidden in the forest above the Pilica, a few hundred metres from St Hubert's Grotto in the eastern part of Spała. It is a small recreational pavilion and a destination for walks along the forest paths around the former hunting residence in Spała.

Origin of the name Grzybek

The pavilion stands where a former thatch-roofed shelter once stood, which before the Second World War was colloquially known as the little mushroom. It was there that open-air receptions were organised for guests of the Spała palace, including meetings attended by President Ignacy Mościcki, who spent the summer months in Spała.

A place for walking

The present pavilion lies not far from Grota św. Huberta and serves as a small rest point on a walking route through the forest above the river. The walk can be extended towards the centre of Spała, where there is, for example, Park Linowy.
