The Opawskie Mountains Landscape Park is one of three landscape parks in the Opole Voivodeship. It is located between the cities of Prudnik and Głuchołazy, near the border with the Czech Republic, and its area covers the Opawskie Mountains – the eastern part of the Sudetes. The Biała Głuchołaska and Złoty Potok rivers flow through the park, creating numerous gorge sections in its area. About 80% of the park's area is occupied by forests – mainly with a predominance of spruce and beech, where many protected species of animals and plants occur. In the 12th and 13th centuries, gold was mined in the areas of the current Park, the remains of which are excavations, piles of washed gravel and sand, and mining shafts. The best-preserved slate outcrops can be seen on the Karliki rocks, in Gwarkowa Perć, and in the closed Dewon quarry near Jarnołtówek. Attractive in terms of tourism is also the trail to Biskupia Kopa – the highest peak of the Opawskie Mountains leading along the path of Paul Lange, the mayor of Prudnik, who was, among others, the initiator of the construction of the PTTK shelter "Pod Kopą Biskupią." In total, over 150 km of tourist trails and nature-educational paths lead through the park area. Exceptionally popular are Pokrzywna located in the park's buffer zone with the Leśne swimming pool, the spa park in Głuchołazy, as well as the Amusement and Education Park Lost City of Rosenau. Practical information: The facility is generally accessible. Access is limited. Parking spaces on Spacerowa Street or behind the main gate.
