Połom Mały: Wine, Stations of the Cross and Cycling Route

A Stations of the Cross route leads to the Jubilee Cross; a replica of the Lourdes Grotto is located at its first station. Winnica Nowizny offers a vineyard tour and a multimedia presentation. The “Trasa 13 – U podnóży Szpilówki” cycling route passes through Połom Mały and several other places. These three themes offer different ways to plan a stay around your own interests.

The Stations of the Cross route leads to the Jubilee Cross in Połom Mały. A replica of the Lourdes Grotto is located at its first station. This makes it easy to distinguish the destination from the religious stop: the Jubilee Cross is the route’s destination, while the grotto is part of its first station. If you are interested in religious sites, you can see both as parts of the same route.

The hosts at Winnica Nowizny offer a vineyard tour and a multimedia presentation about winegrowing, winemaking and wine consumption. The two formats have different focuses: the tour is about the vineyard, while the presentation covers several aspects of wine, from production to consumption. This makes it easier to choose based on whether you are more interested in winegrowing or the broader subject of wine culture.

Winnica Nowizny has a tasting cellar whose history dates back to 1891. Next to the vineyard, a finely vaulted stone cellar is set into the slope, where tastings are held. These details add a historical dimension and a distinctive cellar setting to the tour and presentation. The year 1891 refers to the history of the tasting cellar.

The description of the “Trasa 13 – U podnóży Szpilówki” cycling route, published in 2022, takes riders through Połom Mały and Iwkowa, Kąty, Drużków, Pusty and Wojakowa. The route runs over the hills around Iwkowa and is considered challenging and highly scenic. It offers a different focus from the village’s religious and wine-related attractions, centring instead on a route through several named places. Check current route conditions before setting out.
