Zakopane & the Tatras

📷 User:Rj1979 · Public domain · Wikimedia Commons

Poland’s mountain resort with wooden villas and alpine lakes.

Zakopane sits beneath the granite peaks of the Tatra National Park: hikes lead to the lake Morskie Oko and up Giewont, a cable car climbs Kasprowy Wierch, and the highlanders’ wooden architecture, smoked cheese and thermal pools make it a year-round favourite.
