Additional Information
The Tatra mountains are among the most rugged and spectacular in Europe, part
of the granite Carpathian Range, rising to almost 2500m. The dramatic
scenery, combined with a sophisticated network of footpaths, makes it a
popular walking destination. On this trip, we trek through valleys, past
lakes and over ridges before the final test, a tough ascent of Rysy (2499m),
the highest mountain in Poland. From the top, we gain a dramatic 360-degree
view of more than 100 peaks. This trip offers the great opportunity to
experience the great change of scenery from the verdant Western Tatras to the
The High Tatras, with their dramatic vistas, steep peaks, sharp rocks, deep
glens, and crystal lakes. The walking will be hard but rewarding, the
terrain tough but beautiful, and the mountain huts basic but friendly, clean
and hospitable.
