The Enduro Trails mountain bike trail park is located in the City of Bielsko-Biała. It is a network of one-way bike trails or so-called singletracks. These popular mountain bike trails are twisty, narrow and undulating with varied levels of difficulty, from the gently descending easier trails to the steep and technical downhills. Most of the trails were built for the Enduro racing event periodically held here (hence the name of the trail network).
The trail centre (with tourist information and surrounding facilities) is located at the foot of Kozia Góra (the City’s recreational area is called “Błonia”). The trails are scatterred between Szyndzielnia and Kozia Góra (in the Klimczok mountain massif). Szyndzielnia rises up to the height of 1030 metres above sea level. The peak can be reached by a modern gondola lift. Kozia Góra is a smaller hill (686 m a.s.l.) with a rich tourist culture. The longest toboggan run in Europe used to operate here.(the structures are still clearly visible). On both mountains you can also find cozy huts dating back to the 19th century.

A trail allowing descent from the Klimczok area (starting on a flattening below the summit) to the Dziebar trail or the upper station of the Gondola (right branch in the lower part). A natural but not very difficult route (smoothed along its entire length in 2021). It includes a few more challenging options (e.g., 3 jumps with a hole) and one flat section with a short climb near the shelter (for 20 seconds).
Fun fact: The trail's name is connected to the old term for Szyndzielnia, where highlanders from Brenna used to produce beech "szendziolki," meaning shingles. As they were dressed in traditional woolen "gacie" (pants), the clearing and the whole hill were referred to as "Gaciok" or "Szendzielnia.
