Super good oven-baked trout with herb butter, smoked trout pierogi are a hit. Delicious regional beer. During lunchtime, it's hard to get a table because there are so few of them (7), but it's worth the wait because the food is truly delicious and reasonably priced - trout with baked potatoes, smoked trout pierogi, 2 beers - 142 PLN - worth a try - we'll definitely be back ✌️

A very well-known spa town in the Pieniny Mountains (southern Poland). There are numerous bike and mountain bike rentals here. And the potential is enormous, whether to Slovakia via the beautiful Dunajec Gorge or to Radziejowa Mountain, which stands at 1,266 meters and offers a magnificent panorama. On the local mountain, Palenica, at 722 meters, there are accessible mountain bike descents on singletrack. You can then take the chairlift up.

A beautiful park in Rabka-Zdrój. Covering approximately 30 hectares, it is one of the largest in Małopolska. It was founded in 1864 by Julian Zubrzycki, the then owner of Rabka-Zdrój. There are many different things to see here, such as the John Paul II monument, the graduation tower, the cardiac hospital, the Soviet soldiers' cemetery, and another one from World War I. Of course, the avenues are beautiful, lined with trees, and beautiful flowers and flower beds are everywhere. If you're walking the Main Beskid Trail, it's worth deviating from Parkowa Street here. It's a great place to relax.

Two cannons, several graves. The whole thing is fenced but open.

Nine trunks grow from one place. The trees, in search of sunlight, have bent away from the vertical, except for one, which grows in the middle of the circle. One may suspect that it is more difficult for the trees to obtain water "in such a crowd". WW

For a tourist visiting Szczawnica for the first time, it may come as a surprise that here - in a mountainous area, practically devoid of flat places, there is a large lake. Coming closer, the surprise grows at the sight of the fish that live here, among the water lilies. Many people sit on benches placed along the shore, or watch the fish from a concrete pier equipped with a railing. In case of rain, you can walk around the lake and take shelter in the gazebo on the high bank on the side of the park chapel. WW

This year, we have a long and hot summer in Poland, everyone is looking for refreshment in their own way. If there is no water curtain, you can use the fountain. On my walking route through Szczawnica, I did not encounter a single water curtain. WW
