About location

Among the places of the Polish Tatras, Kasprowy Wierch stands out for its high-ridge position on the Polish–Slovak border. At 1,987 metres, it belongs to the Western Tatras and forms a meeting point above the Gąsienicowa and Goryczkowa valleys. The cable car from Kuźnice, opened in 1936, made the mountain one of Poland’s best-known access points to high alpine terrain. The Goryczkowa chairlift serves its southern slopes, while the IMGW-PIB High-Mountain Meteorological Observatory is a distinctive summit building. Kasprowy Wierch lies within Tatra National Park, with marked routes continuing along the ridge towards other major Tatra peaks.

Country Poland

Poland stretches from the Baltic Sea coast in the north to the Carpathian Mountains along its southern frontier, encompassing broad lowlands, lake districts and upland ranges. The Vistula, the country’s longest river, links Kraków and Warsaw before reaching the Baltic near Gdańsk, while the Masurian Lake District is defined by a dense network of lakes. Kraków’s historic centre, including Wawel Castle, recalls Poland’s former royal capital; Warsaw’s rebuilt Old Town speaks to the city’s recovery after the Second World War. The Białowieża Forest preserves one of Europe’s last primeval lowland forests and is home to European bison. Follow how Poland’s regions relate to one another by browsing webcams across the country.
