Beginning our weekend trip, we leave Rzeszów and head for Dynów, taking the 878 road. After we go past Tyczyn and Hyżne, right before Dynów we get to the crossroads with the 884 road connecting Domaradz and Przemyśl. We suggest taking a break for a meal in “Pod Semaforem” inn (Bachórz 16). The restaurant offers not only excellent food and drinks, its attraction is also the nearby narrow-gauge rail connecting Przeworsk and Dynów.

The Fortress of Przemysl – built at the turn of the 19th century – was one of the largest complex of fortifications of Europe during the second world war. The fortifications contributed to the slowing of the Russian offensive to the West. The Foretress of Przemysl was besieged three times, in all, the fortresses defended themselves for the longest of 179 days. Only the French fortress Verdun, which did not endure a full siege, sustained itself longer. The fortress currently comprises a 45km range of 15 primary and a few dozen supporting forts. A scenic hiking trail linking the forts is posted by a black stripe.

Recently vine growing and winemaking have gained in popularity in Podkarpacie and other regions of Poland. There are several reasons for that: opening to the western world and its culture, getting practical experience in vineyards in the south and west of Europe, the popularization of wine-drinking culture.
The name of the vineyard comes from a nearby ruins of a medieval GOLESZ castle. The vineyard, started in 1982, is situated on a hill, several meters above the Wisłoka River valley, on the way from Jasło to Pilzno. The first vine in the vineyard was Ontario variety brought from Jarosław. Then, in 1985, a larger number of Bianca nad Perła Zali vines were planted in rows by Hungarian winemakers. Nowadays about 5000 vines are being cultivated. The vineyard has also a nursery of stocks to graft and a wine cellar. |
