Solina's biggest hits

Staying at West Cadillac puts you right in the centre of it all. No need to worry about traffic or paid parking at the attractions — leave the car with us, and the most important sights are just a few minutes' walk away.

~ 2 min (225m)

The Famous Solina Dam

Poland's largest hydro-engineering structure, standing 81.8 m tall and nearly 700 m long. From our property you can reach it via a lively promenade lined with souvenir stalls and cafés. Walking its crest is a double spectacle: the vast Lake Solina and the deep valley of the San River.

We recommend the guided tour that takes you 5 metres below the lake bed inside the dam.
~ 15 min (1000m)

PKL Gondola Lift

The base station "Plasza" sits right by the dam. A glass gondola ride along the 1.5 km route offers stunning bird's-eye views. At the top of Mount Jawor you'll find the Mysterious Solina Park and an observation tower — a brilliant spot to capture the perfect photo of the Bieszczady Mountains.

There's also a scenic café with a terrace at the top — perfect for an afternoon coffee.
~ 10 min (450m)

"Biała Flota" Boat Cruises

To discover the hidden fjords of Lake Solina, head down to the marina below the dam crest. Cruises usually last 45–60 minutes, with guides passionately recounting legends of the sunken villages — such as old Solina and Wołkowyja — whose foundations still lie beneath the ship.

We recommend an afternoon cruise, when the sunlight reflects off the waves in a golden glow.

Fishing

A paradise for anglers

Lake Solina and its surrounding waters are legendary. Hunt for massive catfish and hefty carp across the lake's expansive waters. If you prefer river fishing and close contact with the current, head to the scenic San River to test yourself against chub and beautiful wild trout. These are exceptional fishing grounds that regularly reward patient anglers with fantastic catches.
