Romantic Mountains

One of the indisputable advantages of Krakow, in contrast to other Polish cities, is the close proximity to the mountains. The journey to Zakopane, the most important mountain resort, takes only about 3 hours by car. Our two-day excursion can be a nice introduction to discover the charms of the Polish mountains.
