Tatra

The Tatra Mountains form a small but alpine mountain range that serves as a natural border between Poland and Slovakia. The High Tatras, part of the Tatra Mountains, are the highest peaks in the Western Carpathians and extend over approximately two-thirds of Slovakian territory and one-third of Polish territory. With their breathtaking views, steep peaks, sharp rocks, deep gorges and crystal-clear lakes, they form the most attractive part of the Tatra Mountains. The Polish part, like the Slovakian part, has been officially declared a national park and a UNESCO biosphere reserve. The lower and middle parts of the mountains are covered with fragrant pine forests that are home to a rich variety of flora and fauna.

The highest peak in the Polish Tatra Mountains and also the highest mountain in Poland, Rysy ("Sea Eye Peak"), rises about 2,500 metres above sea level. Numerous glacial lakes add to the beauty of the mountain region. Another charming aspect of the Tatra Mountains are the 650 caves shrouded in legend, six of which are open to the public. They are located in the Kościeliska Valley and can be easily reached via wide hiking trails. The mountains of the High Tatras not only offer a wealth of natural beauty, but also provide ideal conditions for winter sports. Breathtaking views, unspoilt nature and excellent alpine runs and cross-country trails ensure a varied skiing experience!
