Drive out of Kraków and into rolling Lesser Poland fields for a supervised session at the Paczółtowice shooting range. Instructors guide novices through pistols, rifles and a shotgun in a controlled, four-hour experience.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A late-morning van slips off the A4 and rolls down a single-lane lane toward Paczółtowice; pines lean and a wind nudges the tall grass as you step onto compacted gravel. Range stands line up under a low sky, instructors already checking ear protection and targets. The first sharp crack of a pistol is precise enough to cut through the village quiet — the sound of the countryside answering back.
