I really enjoyed my visit to Zakopane. Of course, I lived there for a summer with my Grandmother. We hiked the Tatra Mountains, I spent alot of time in town and at neighbouring farms. Skiing is the mainstay of this area, and in the winter time, there are far too many winter sports and events to freely list – ice skating (competition and family) cross-country skiing, open skiing, toboggan, luge, sledding, it’s just a really beautiful and fun atmosphere. It’s also a fairly small town, so it’s easy to navigate by one’s self.
