Right at the entrance to the Kościeliska Valley (those views!) stands the Chapel of Our Lady of Gietrzwałd. The chapel is very beautiful, but contrary to what you might think, it is not super old, it was created in 1972. Inside there is a copy of the painting of Our Lady of Gietrzwałd, by Maciej Kajetan Kreutz from Łódź.

The length of the climb is 4.4 km, and the elevation gain is 240 m. The average gradient is 5.7%, but it is a varied climb, with parts up to 13%. The asphalt surface is impeccable. Along the way, we can count on wonderful Tatra views.
