We took a private tour to this area as my mother was born in wysowa,poland.Would never have found it on our own.Beautiful and church guide gave us a tour which our guide translated to english.Thank god many of these churches have survived the horrors which have transpired in these areas.

One of sixteen orthodox churches inscribed onto UNESCO list, as a: "Wooden Tserkvas of the Carpathian region in Poland and Ukraine". Hard to get to, as no public transport, apart from school buses. Small car park around last bus stop in the valley - tarmac road goes only for few hundred meters more, and then it's only a dirt track. Thanks to Małopolskie tourist board there's a guide waiting for tourists (free of charge, as already paid by the board), always ready to tell the history of the place. If the guide isn't there - theres a phone number on the notice board (same as here on TripAdvisor), and - within reasonable hours - guide will be with you in few minutes, opening the temple for you. Quite unusual situation here, as this building was built as a greek catholic church, and now - after long break - still serves that purpose, plus it is shared for catholic community as their branch church. Unusual church, unusual village, visit worth every effort.
