Zagorz: Kompleks skoczni narciarskich "Zakucie" w Zagórzu K40, K20, K10

The landscape around Zagórz is formed by wooded Carpathian foothills and the confluence of the Osława and San rivers, which have shaped both the town’s layout and local economy. In the Subcarpathian Voivodeship, it is a small town with a strong railway tradition: Zagórz station developed as an important junction on routes through southeastern Poland. Above the town stand the ruins of an 18th-century Discalced Carmelite monastery, a hilltop complex whose surviving walls and church remains recall its fortified past. The San valley and nearby forested ridges give the area a distinctly inland Carpathian character.

Built around the Carpathian foothills and the upper San River basin, Subcarpathian Voivodeship grew into Poland’s southeastern borderland region. Rzeszów, the regional capital, is its main urban centre, while the land rises southward towards the Low Beskids and Bieszczady Mountains. The San and its tributaries cut through valleys of farmland and forest, linking small towns with the higher Carpathian interior. Wooden Roman Catholic churches and Orthodox tserkvas reflect centuries of Polish and Ukrainian cultural contact, and several local tserkvas form part of a UNESCO World Heritage listing. Continue through the area to see how this part of southeastern Poland connects regionally.

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.
