One of the most beautiful views in Spisz

In my opinion, the absolute most beautiful view of Lake Czorsztyn. I was truly speechless and stood there and looked for a very long time. It is also possible that it is because of the fatigue with which I climbed this hill. Because regardless of whether you are going from Frydman or Niedzica, the ascent is quite tiring. Either way, it is worth going there, because even these beautiful photos do not do this view justice!

This view of the Tatras from this pass is so good that it's hard to believe it exists... Simply from the road, without even getting out of the car (but do get out) you can admire the incredibly dramatic Tatra massif. I'll let the photos describe the rest, but I'll just add that many consider this place to be the best view of the Tatras anywhere!

Velo Czorsztyn is one of the most beautiful cycling routes in Poland, running around Lake Czorsztyn in the Pieniny Mountains. It is about 30 km long and offers spectacular views of the Tatras, the castles in Czorsztyn and Niedzica and the picturesque landscapes of Podhale. The route is well-maintained, with a paved surface, which makes it suitable for all types of bikes. There are numerous rest areas, beaches and catering points along the way. An additional attraction is the possibility of shortening the route by cycling across the lake on board one of the boats operating here.

A historic chapel-bell tower dedicated to Our Lady of Częstochowa, built in 1928. The bell – funded by the residents of Łapszanka – warned people of an approaching storm and at the same time “scared off lightning”. This custom is no longer practiced. There is a commemorative plaque by the chapel, commemorating the event of July 17, 1967. At that time, 33-year-old Franciszek Kapołka – a resident of Łapszanka, son of Walenty, who as a 16-year-old boy built the chapel – was fatally struck by lightning while ringing for a storm.
