Itinerary description
It was low season (12th oct) but the weather fantastic to enjoy quite a long trip. I only had one day left for walking, so I took advantage of public transport to go to Kasprowy Wierch (by bus plus cable) and return from Polana Palenica by bus.
In Zakopane it was easy and cheap to find accomodation because of the low season dates. Transport from Krakow to Zakopane it's a bit more than 2 hours each way and very frequent, bus is recomended.
About the trail, you can choose which way you want to do. In all maps and post-signs kms and time are marked. Some places are not so easy to do, for example Swinica. In my trail, I could see some different landscapes, specially nice was the lake Morskie Oko at the twighlight.
Take care of the weather and it's sudden changes.

hey... nice track, i'm planning to you to zakopane in about two weeks and planning to do some tracks around, how can i get to this lake you had mentioned morskie oko, looks pretty nice and easy way, after that i would see ohter lakes, i'll take your track, many thanks.
hola capdebuda, et contesto en catala perque crec que som de la mateixa terra. Per cert, un nick molt del Delta... Encara que sigue estiu als Tatry pot arribar a semblar hivern, podria estar nuvolat, etc. Es facil aconseguir un mapa. Alli esta tot molt pautat, els trails, tot esta molt portaventuritzat, et marquen els temps en des diferents punts de creuament per tots dos sentits. Cal estar al cas de fins on arriba el transport public. El llac que comentes es molt assequible, recordo que un cop vaig arribar al llac vaig haver de baixar un grapat de kms a peu fins la parada dautobus, pero ja de baixada i va ser per carretera. Qualsevol cosa, torna a escriure.
Es un casualidad que hoy haya hablado con una estudiante polaca de Łódź que pasa el verano aquí en Vigo y me descubriera Zakopane, el parque nacional de los Tatras y la belleza que rodea al lago Morskie Oko. Enseguida con GE me he paseado por esta cordillera de los Cárpatos y ... oh sorpresa!, dos levantinos/catalanes también enamorados de esta zona intercambiándose información.
Este track es un primor, 'lopuesto' y te felicito por haberlo realizado y compartido.
Un fuerte abrazo.

E' assolutamente un sentiero da percorrere per le vedute spettacolari, l' aria e la vegetazione.
