The Klodzko Valley is a valley of the Sudetes mountains in southwestern Poland, occupying most of Klodzko County and extending a small southern tip into the Czech Republic near Kraliky. The upper Eastern Neisse River runs through it from south to north, and the valley is ringed by the Table Mountains, the Bardzkie Mountains and the Bystrzyckie Mountains to the west and the Snieznik, Golden and Owl Mountains to the east, with the town of Klodzko as its largest settlement. In antiquity the Amber Road passed through the valley as a trade corridor, and today the Klodzko Land is a year round tourist destination known for its spas, hotels and mountain trails.
