This is one of major attractions of Bieszczady National Park. Large massif in western part of the Park. Out of many of its peaks the highest one reaches 1255 m (Roh), also another significant peak is called Smerek - 1222 m. As "Połonina" means forestless mountain ridge, Połonina Wetlińska offers superb views in any direction, including one towards Tarnica, the highest in Polish part of Bieszczady, also, in good weather, panorama can reveal peaks on Ukrainian side of the border. Easiest way of climbing Połonina Wetlińska is from Przełęcz Wyżna, where yellow trail follows road used for deliveries to small mountain hut, called Schronisko PTTK "Chatka Puchatka". But there's many more trails leading to the top of Wetlińska - those from north and south very steep, but short, those from east and west - longer but not so steep, though still quite challenging. Climbing Wetlińska from northern side also puts organising skills to the test, as public transpot doesn't really exist there, so the only way is to hire a small bus in Wetlina village. Definitely "a must" when in Bieszczady

One of the most famous andd visited trails in the Bieszczady Mountains and right so. The views are great and the peaceful wild atmosphere surrounds you (probably not in high season, though). The main path is not very very demanding but it's quite long (3h) and uphill and downhill descent can be tiring

We parked the car in Brzegi Górne National Park car park. paid 16zl for it. The toilet there was free and clean. Very friendly and helpful staff at the car park.
Paid 6zl adult and 3zl reduced national park tickets.
The red trail led us up to the Chatka Puchatka (former Pod Psem) shelter. It is situated on the top of the mountain, so they do not have runnung water or litter bins. Tourists are asked to carry their litter to the bins in valleys. You can buy snacks, tea and coofee at the shelter. There are chemical toilets. They were really full of waste when we were there.
We walked along the Połonina Wetlińska to the Przełęcz Orłowicza (col) and headed for Wetlina. The whole hike took 5 hours, but we did several breaks to rest.
It was hot and sunny, to we had taken plenty of water and drank most of it.
It is a hike with wonderful views provided the weather is OK.
Our drivers only climbed to the shelter and came back to the car park because of their health problems, so they could pick us up from Wetlina.
