View of Jaworzynka Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The section in the Jaworzynka valley is challenging because of its relatively steep gradient. Here the path bends, which offers a beautiful view of the valley.

Two ascending paths (both graded T-2) from the direction of Zakopane lead to the ascent to the Hala Gąsienicowa pasture (1500 m) at this junction.

I am familiar with both paths. The eastern one leads over the Neval and is initially quite demanding, more like T3.

The western one is shallow at the beginning and is very tiring in terms of fitness at the end.

Hala Gąsienicowa (Gąsienicowa Meadow)

Highlight • Natural

The Hala Gąsienicowa mountain pasture in the Dolina valley was established in the 17th century and was in use until the Tatra National Park was established in 1954.
Komoot marks the place Gawra (the bear's winter camp) here.
It is highly recommended to take a break here. In summer, the flowers color the meadows in bright colors.
But be aware that hiking here then becomes a mass migration.

The route itself is pleasant and gentle, but descending from the peak may be slightly problematic.

Jaworzynka Valley

Highlight • Gorge

A beautiful and picturesque valley in the Tatras, not far from Kuźnice. Many limestone outliers, and views of many peaks, such as Cyganka, Parzące Turnie or Gruba Turnia. A great walk!
