Trail to Pod Chłopkiem Pass

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

One of the most beautiful and least appreciated routes in Tatras. Even in season, the number of tourists is much smaller than on the neighboring road to Rysy.

Black Lake below Rysy

Highlight • Lake

A steep climb from Morskie Oko and you are at the extraordinary Czarny Staw. Similarly to Czarny Staw Gąsienicowy, the "black" here is from the shadows cast on the water by the mountains and the cyanobacteria that occurs here.
