Tatra County Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

🏔️💚THE HEART OF TATRA 💚🏔️

The lake's surface, which has been blurred by the wind, is covered in a variety of colors and reflections, making Morskie Oko one of nature's true wonders. Morskie Oko, which is 1,395 meters above sea level and sits above the well-known ski resort of Zakopane, has earned the title of best hiking destination in Poland for a good reason. Nature's finest work! Most of the villagers would agree that Morskie Oko is where the Tatra Mountains' heart is. Morskie Oko, which The Wall Street Journal named one of the five most beautiful lakes on Earth, is located in the middle of the Tatra National Park in southern Poland, breathtakingly surrounded by the Mieguszowiecki Summits and Rysy, the highest summit of the Polish Tatras, which rises to a height of 2,503 meters. Fortunately for its guests, it is also only 100 kilometers from the royal city of Krakow, another beauty of the area. #mytripvlog #tripblazers #poland #naturewonders

Rysy from Morskie Oko PL

Location - Zakopane, PL Lodging - Morskie Oko Mountain Hut Summit the tallest point in Poland and stand at the border of PL & SK. The trail takes you up two beautiful mountain lakes and up the high tatras. This route is challenging, but rewarding. Hike is 12.8 Km round trip from Morskie Oko lake to the summit. As you reach the final Km tocth summit, the trail gets very steep and there are chains to assist with the climb. Previous mountaineer experience is recommended. Trail is very slippery if raining. The views from the summit are unparalleled. Hike down (carefully) the same trail and then reward yourself with a meal and drink at Morskie Oko hut. #morskieoko #zakopane #polandtravel #rysy #countryhighpoints #mountaintop #mountainview

#2024wish My trip to the Sea Eye began with a 4-hour hike through a wildlife reserve, surrounded by waterfalls and freely roaming animals. The air, even in summer, remained refreshingly cool, though the water was too chilly for a swim. On the way back, we opted for a horse-drawn carriage, making the overall journey a day-long adventure. I highly recommend dedicating the entire day for this excursion, as reaching the lake by car or bus is impossible. Bicycles and motorcycles are also prohibited in the reserve. Despite the long queue for the horse-drawn carriage, it was truly an unforgettable experience. In 2024, I hope to return to that enchanting place. #2024wish #zakopane #poland

Mice Amusement Park in Zakopane

Mice Amusement Park (named Myszogród in Polish) is the only attraction of this kind on the map of Zakopane. Myszogród is a unique place inhabited by small mice that can be watched for hours, because they are located behind glass panes. The mice in Myszogrod are placed in showcases showing various fairy-tale sceneries (such as library, little Zakopane, cablecar and many more) All these exhibitions are over 200m². Here you can see mice of many species, colors and sizes (from super small to pretty big mice). This place is a great idea to spend your free time in Zakopane, especially with your children. #poland #zakopane #bucketlistreboot

🏔️KRUPÓWKI STREET the HEART OF ZAKOPANE❤️

The main street in Zakopane is Krupówki Street. Every tourist visiting Zakopane goes to a place that is off-limits to automobile traffic and is covered in granite cubes. It only fills up with people in the evening on beautiful mornings when visitors are out on the ski slopes or mountain routes. Krupowki Promenade is packed all day long. The majority of Zakopane's eateries, bars, clubs, discos, and shops are located at Krupówki. It is an area that is bustling with activity practically all of the time. a store where you may buy on sale to pricey clothing, woodworks, souvenirs, and delicacies. Along the main street, you can find oscypki, a traditional Podhale delicacy. Oscypek is a smoked cheese created only in the Tatra Mountains region of Poland from salty sheep milk (pronounced Osch-öpeck; plural: oscypki). The maker of oscypek goes by the name "baca," which also refers to a shepherd in the mountains. Oscypek is typically consumed raw, grilled, or fried. With local lingonberry or cranberry jam, its smokey, salty flavor is excellent. My favourite was the redykołka, a semi-hard cheese made from half-fat sheep's milk And formed in unusual shapes of small animals, birds, hearts or spindles. The cheese was smooth and white on the interior while it is straw-coloured on the exterior due to having been smoked. Its taste is slightly salty, smoky and spicy. Yum 😋💕😊 #shopandtrip #foodie #mytripvlog #awesomepic #tripblazers #Polishfood #polandtravel #europe

Mighy Tatra mountain!

#passionpassport#givethanks#staycation#campingglamping#foodie#summervacation#awesomepic#nationalpark#themepark#naturalwonders 1. Address - Tatra Mountain Poland Highlights - The Tatra Mountains, part of the Carpathian mountain chain in eastern Europe, create a natural border between Slovakia and Poland. Both Slovak and Polish sides are protected as national parkland and are popular destinations for winter and summer sports. The Tatras are home to wildlife including the Tatra chamois, marmot, lynx and bears. Slovakia has the highest mountain in the range: 2,655m Gerlach Peak. Rating - 4.9 out of 5 2. Address - Tatra Mountain Poland Highlights - The Tatras are located in the Carpathian Mountains. The Carpathian Mountains are the second longest mountain range in Europe, stretching from the Czech Republic, across Poland and Slovakia, to Serbia, Romania, and Moldova. Rating - 4.9 out of 5 3. Address - Tatra Mountain Poland Highlights - Tatra Mountains differ from the Alps for sure in respect of their lengthiness. At similar peak heights (circa 2300 metres) the mountain range is very short and narrow. The length of Tatra Mountains as the crow flies amounts to 53 kilometres, whereas the length along the main ridge on almost entire length both along the tourist route as well as the border between Poland and Slovakia, 80 kilometres. The width of the Tatra Mountains is "up to" 30 km. On the territory of Slovakia and Polish Podhale there are many places, from which it is possible to admire their full splendour with no difficulty. The impression of fairy-tale character of the scenery and the vastness of the mountains is enhanced by the peculiar geological landscape construction. Both on the southern and on the northern side there are large tectonic valleys, with gentle 1000 meter hills behind them. Tatra Mountains seen from Podhale and lighted up by the morning sun actually constitutes the most beloved theme for Polish landscape photographers. On the shores of streams, on the outlet of big Tatra valleys, there are both deciduous riparian-type forests as well as beach wood forests with a dash of pine tree. They quickly give place to spruce and fir forests, transforming into a strip of dwarf mountain pine, alternating with rowanberry and lofty Swiss stone pines, subsequently turning into mountain pastures or large meadows used to pasture the sheep and in winter serving as an exzellent ski area. There are no glaciers in Tatra Mountains. On the height where there is actually cold enough during the whole year the slopes are to steep, so that they could hold any larger amounts of snow. The remaining of the ice age is a group of 200 unusually picturesque mountain lakes. Rating - 4.9 out of 5
