About
Quick facts: A 350-seat cable car carriage rises to an altitude of 1987 meters, providing a 12-minute ride over the mountains. Upon reaching the top, a 360-degree view of the Tatra National Park and the town of Zakopane unfolds.
Highlights: In the quiet morning, you may hear only the whispering wind and echoes hidden between the mountains. At sunrise, the sun colors the mountain peak in warm tones, painting the sky orange and pink.
Insider tips
- Dress in layers because it can be several degrees colder at the top than below.
- The best photos can be taken at sunrise and sunset, especially near the western peak.
- Avoid weekends when the cable car can be very crowded.
- Try the hiking trail starting points on the peak, some of which lead to quieter and more peaceful trail sections.
