Geological object

Information

  • Address: 57-100 Gębczyce
The flooded granite and limestone workings in Gębczyce have been visited by countless lovers of extreme sports. The vertical slopes reach over 30m deep underwater. In 2007, the Polish Granite Mining Compant resumed the extraction and the quarry is no longer open for tourists and lovers of extreme sports. Interestingly, years ago divers have left a computer set underwater, on a rock projection 28m under water. This spot was known as "Cafe Dread" among explorers of deep waters.
