Shortly after crossing the Polish-Slovak border, we can begin to enjoy the magnificent views of the Tatras, which we will gradually approach as we ride the Trail Around the Tatras. This is one of many points on the route where we can admire impressive peaks on the horizon.

Here, at these trail markings, on this road and near the entrance to the Chochołowska Valley, is the western end of the beautiful and easy Droga pod Reglami. If you start from here, you will have a real treat and an uninterrupted (for kilometers) panorama of the Tatras from its foothills.

Right at the entrance to the Kościeliska Valley (those views!) stands the Chapel of Our Lady of Gietrzwałd. The chapel is very beautiful, but contrary to what you might think, it is not super old, it was created in 1972. Inside there is a copy of the painting of Our Lady of Gietrzwałd, by Maciej Kajetan Kreutz from Łódź.
