Giewont is 1894 m high and has characteristic profile of – as legend says – sleeping knight. It is located close to Zakopane city what makes it very popular and crowded. I suggest not to go there during summer weekend unless you want to wait 3 hours in queue to the peak :)

It was 3 years ago, with 3 friends, on weekend in June. Now I know better what I can expect in Tatra mountains, but that time I didn’t know :) We didn’t expect so much people and so much snow.
The most difficult and most dangerous trail in Tatra Mountains. Secured by chains, ladders and metal steps. If you like adrenaline, you will like this path!
I spent only few days in Castellón district, but I had a chance to see it on a ground on short bike trips and from above on parachute jump. It was really beautiful :)
Reportedly on Babia Góra there’s wind 364 days a year. It is 1725 m high and is the highest mountain of Western Beskids. “Babia Góra” can be translated as “old woman’s mountain”, but it is also often called “Diablak”, which comes from a word “diabeł” – devil.
