Rysy

Reviewed By J_Jurate - Vilnius, Lithuania

The hike is spectacular!! You can hike the peak from Slovakia and/or Poland. We ascended from Slovakia and descended in Poland which was amazing 14 hours hike (with very many stops). Slovak side is physically easier and less scenic, while Polish side is much steeper and very narrow at a few places which causes some congestions as in generally this is one of the most popular and busiest hikes in the region. Good hiking gear is a must, but there is no need for ropes or so. Last few hundred meters to the top require scrambling. Views are absolutely fantastic!!

Definitely very best place to hike for me. The only alpine mountains in Poland with altitude 2000 m+. On season (May - October) very, very crowded, especially on weekends, but if you're not going to the most popular trails and peaks (Morskie Oko, Kasprowy Wierch, Orla Perć, Giewont), there are many less crowded trails, and some of them are so wild that you can meet 5-10 people in 3 hours of hiking. Entrance to the national park costs 6 pln (~$2) and it's definitely worth it. I recommend going everywhere by bus (but drivers often don't speak English), because parkings are expensive (20 pln for one day ~$5.5). Just avoid crowded trails and enjoy one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Forests and ridges are relatively clean, because park's volunteers are cleaning it up very often, so don't litter.
