Tarnica would be the trail to be in! Especially when you reach the peak, there is a long walk on... read more
After being to the Tatras in July, coming here was such a relief! Even though the Bieszczady mountains are different from the Tatras, I'd come back here any time, whereas the Tatras, perhaps if there is a day without tourists. Unfortunately, we only had two nights here, and of course, it had to rain. So we climbed Polonina Wetlinska on a very grey and misty day, we hardly saw five metres ahead, but we still made it. The first part is more or less continually uphill, the when you reach the top, the path winds its way along the ridge with some ups and some downs. If you choose such a wet day, you need to be very careful as the path is extremely slippery, not only the rocks and roots, but the ground itself. You really need very good footwear. Even though there are plenty of people here in the high season too, it isn't anywhere near as bad as the Tatras and the area have so many paths to choose from. Also, the people holidaying here seem to be of a different kind. It is remote now, but once upon a time, not that long ago in fact (a little more than half a century ago), it was much more densely populated by the Lemks and the Boyks that were blamed for the civil war that took place in this area just after WWII, hence they were removed. You can still see traces of their villages and orchards, many of the beautiful wooden churches around are also their legacy. I'd love to come back and explore the area more, and as somebody else wrote here, should we really tell the others, or should we keep it secret.

A very remote part of Poland. Not a high mountain range. Worth visiting for great trekking paths. Perfect for early fall when it's still warm dry and trees are yellow and red.
Also the wooden architecture of the area is amazing - mainly orthodox churches.
Also worth vising - artificial lake Solina.





If you want to find more beautiful place in Beskidy - good luck but I'm sure that isn't possible. Bieszczady was first on the list "must see again" and from that time I come back there every time. Keep calm and go to Bieszczady!





The Bieszczady National Park is in the far SE of Poland and is because of this is remote and unspoilt. The scenery is not dramatic but it is very beautiful. Because of its location it is not crowded and on some walks you can go hours without seeing other walkers. Wolves, lynx and bears still roam the forest here.

A lot of trekking paths, both in the forrest and on the "Polonine". Not to much people. Cleaner and nicer than in many other tourist places in Poland.

Went for a hike, great view from top of mountain. I would highly recommend doing this when your visiting Bieszcady
