How to reach the ruins of the Royal Castle:
Chęciny are located 15 km to the southwest from Kielce, along the E7 route to Cracow. From Kielce, Chęciny can be reached by the 31 bus or by the suburban transport, the bus stop for the latter one is located in Żytnia street.
The Royal Castle is located on the Castle Mountain. In order to reach the ruins from the Chęciny centre, it is advisable to follow Jędrzejowska street, heading to the southwest to the car park at the foot of the castle. Next, follow the Royal Route up to the fortress' gate.
You can choose another, more difficult trail to the castle – from the main square follow a stony road past the Chęciny Commune Office, turn right next to the church dedicated to Saint Bartholomew and head upwards following a steep path towards the castle.
