Monument to the plane crash in Obidowiec

Highlight • Monument

A symbolic monument commemorating the crash stands along the red hiking trail, running from the PTTK mountain hut in Stare Wierchy to the PTTK mountain hut in Turbacz. It consists of fragments of the plane's wreckage – a sheet of sheet metal, a round shield with the Red Cross symbol, and a piece of the propeller are attached to an openwork cross.

On May 25, 1973, a Let L-200 Morava ambulance plane was transporting a sick child to Nowy Targ. The flight took place in difficult weather conditions, with heavy snowfall. The mother of the transported child died as a result of the crash. The pilot suffered a serious spinal injury, while the child was not seriously injured.

Turbacz

Highlight • Summit

The highest peak of the Gorce Mountains - Turbacz 1310 m above sea level, included in the Crown of Polish Mountains. The peak itself is located above the shelter and you have to climb it if you approach the yellow, green, blue trail or the red one from Polana Gabrowska. From the gentle peak there is a wonderful view of the Tatras (in favorable weather).

The highest peak of the Gorce Mountains presents a panorama of the Tatras (slightly obscured by a few trees) and a view towards Babia Góra. At the top is a concrete obelisk, with which everyone takes pictures.

Wikipedia says that this peak is "not very outstanding", but I don't know: there are beautiful views of the Gorce Mountains here - just look at the photos: is it not very outstanding?

PTTK mountain hut on Maciejowa

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The shelter located on the edge of the Przysłop glade near Maciejowa is one of 10 mountain huts for qualified tourism that were established in the Polish mountains in the 1970s to serve individual tourists. Maciejowa is a small, charming facility, built of wooden logs; it offers 25 beds and hot meals from its own kitchen. The shelter's terrace offers a beautiful view of the Tatras, Babia Góra and Rabka-Zdrój.

The hut is an excellent base for those who practice hiking, cycling and skiing. It takes about 2 hours to get there from Rabka-Zdrój along the red trail, and about 1 hour from Rabka-Słone along the black trail.
