Travel.LovePoland December 2020
Dear Readers, As befits the winter issue of the magazine, we encourage you to get to know and visit various parts of Poland. We show you round the most famous places, such as Gdańsk or the Tatras (in Łukasz' beautiful photographs), but we also encourage you to get to know the less known ones, such as Tylicz or Ochodzita or the Herbst Museum in Łódź. As usual, we devote a lot of space to Polish nature. This time in two articles: Magda and Łukasz take you on the Biebrza, and Włodzimierz Stachoń invites you to get to know wild birds. There must be also something about Christmas traditions. As always, Kasia Skóra will tell about many of them – but she won't be the only one. Get to know some secrets of Polish Christmas cuisine, including those described by Magdalena Tomaszewska-Bolałek. And almost at the end, we have for you a beautiful, in our opinion, photo gallery by Kamila Rosińska - kept in a very festive mood. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Good New Year.

Ascending the Ski Run
Due to the great popularity among ski-tourists of Kasprowy
Wierch, the ski trail from the Niżnia Goryczkowa Plain to the
top of Kasprowy Wierch is marked when the ski slope in the
Goryczkowa Valley is available.
While ascending, follow the edge of the route, along with the
orange direction signs. It is not allowed to ascend using the
central part of the trail.
During the period of non-availability of the ski slope in the
Goryczkowa Valley for downhill skiing, ski tourism can be
practiced within the ski slope in the Goryczkowa Valley,
provided that there is snow cover protecting the vegetation
and soil against the impact of skiing. The use of this area
requires thorough knowledge of its boundaries, as the area
is not marked.
Note: Skiing is not allowed in all areas!
Other Activities
Walk: Palenica Białczańska to the Shelter at Morskie Oko
This activity is for complete novices and is aimed primarily at
beginners in mountain trekking. I must admit that we
followed this trail, but in the summer. In winter, Morskie Oko
itself did not encourage me to visit. The trail starts from
Palenica Białczańskie, where you can get to by your own
means of transport or by bus from the center of Zakopane
(one-way ticket costs about PLN 10 per person). In winter,
there are fewer buses, so it is worth hitting the trail as early
as possible and remember that around 4.00 pm it is already
dark (and cold!).
From Palenica, you take the red trail. It will take you 2 to 2.5
hours to reach the shelter. The trail runs for 9km along a
boring, asphalt, winding road covered in the winter with a
thick layer of snow (slightly uphill). With heavy ice, non-slip
pads/crampons will be useful. On the way, we pass boards
informing us about the avalanche danger in a section of
about 2km. We should neither stop in these places nor take a
trip on days with a high risk of avalanche. The return trip in
winter should not take more than 4-5 hours.
