In winter, skiing is the main attraction, but in summer, green valleys, high mountains, hiking trails and excursions to some of Poland&#039;s most beautiful natural areas await. We visited Zakopane by camper van in the summer and discovered a place where magnificent nature mixes with traditional mountain culture \u2013 and a lot of touristy junk.<\/p><div

summer, hiking, nature and excursions are the main focus.

A famous example is <em>Villa Koliba<\/em>, which was the first villa built according to Witkiewicz&#039;s ideas.<\/p><div class=\"freed-grupp-i-blogginlagg-2 freed-entity-placement\" id=\"freed-2638565135\"><div class=\"freed-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><div id=\"freed-slider-88753\" class=\"custom-slider freed-slider-4206642529 freed-slider\"><ul><li><div id=\"freed-3724419874\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.elmia.se\/husvagn\/for-besokare\/biljetter\/?utm_source=freedomtravel&#038;utm_medium=banner&#038;utm_campaign=elmiahusvagn_kop_biljett_mars-sep\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158-300x81.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158-224x60.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158-18x5.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/ElmiaHusvagnHusbil_2026_FREEDOMtravel_vi_ses_2027_588x158-433x116.jpg 433w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" width=\"588\" height=\"158\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><li><div id=\"freed-4208637980\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/husbilslandet.com\/i-lager?amount=-1&#038;vehicle_type=camper&#038;price=219000%2C8874149&#038;y=2005%2C2027&#038;weight=1000%2C18000&#038;rea=true\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Demo sale (588 x 158 px)\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Demoutforsaljning-588-x-158-px-.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Demoutforsaljning-588-x-158-px-.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Demoutforsaljning-588-x-158-px--300x81.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Demoutforsaljning-588-x-158-px--224x60.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Demoutforsaljning-588-x-158-px--18x5.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Demoutforsaljning-588-x-158-px--433x116.jpg 433w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" width=\"588\" height=\"158\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><script>( window.advanced_ads_ready || jQuery( document ).ready ).call( null, function() {var $freedslider4206642529 = jQuery( \".freed-slider-4206642529\" );$freedslider4206642529.on( \"unslider.ready\", function() { jQuery( \"div.custom-slider ul li\" ).css( \"display\", \"block\" ); });$freedslider4206642529.unslider({ delay:4000, autoplay:true, nav:false, arrows:false, infinite:true });$freedslider4206642529.on(\"mouseover\", function() {$freedslider4206642529.unslider(\"stop\");}).on(\"mouseout\", function() {$freedslider4206642529.unslider(\"start\");});});<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Zakopane.jpg\" alt=\"Zakopane i Polen\" class=\"wp-image-51779\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Zakopane.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Zakopane-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Zakopane-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Zakopane-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Zakopane-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Typical houses and a ski lift in the background<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Strosa_langs_Krupowki\"><\/span>Stroll along Krup\u00f3wki<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the middle of Zakopane lies the pedestrian street Krup\u00f3wki, the city&#039;s main tourist thoroughfare.

Kasprowy Wierch is very popular, so during high season it is wise to plan your visit in advance.<\/p><div class=\"freed-stor-banner-plats-14 freed-entity-placement\" id=\"freed-3082185084\"><div id=\"freed-slider-88782\" class=\"custom-slider freed-slider-3758779808 freed-slider\"><ul><li><div id=\"freed-1039277636\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/husbilslandet.com\/i-lager?amount=-1&#038;vehicle_type=camper&#038;price=219000%2C8874149&#038;y=2005%2C2027&#038;weight=1000%2C18000&#038;rea=true\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Demo sale 588x588px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-224x224.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-325x325.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-520x520.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Demoutforsaljning-588x588px-120x120.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" width=\"588\" height=\"588\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><li><div id=\"freed-1174930131\" class=\"method-missing not-front type-post not-theme-page\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/se.adria-mobil.com\/husvagnar\/alpina\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"adria-freedom-XL-588x588px\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px.jpg\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px.jpg 588w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-224x224.jpg 224w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-12x12.jpg 12w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-325x325.jpg 325w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-520x520.jpg 520w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/adria-freedom-XL-588x588px-120x120.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 588px) 100vw, 588px\" width=\"588\" height=\"588\"   \/><\/a><\/div><\/li><\/ul><\/div><script>( window.advanced_ads_ready || jQuery( document ).ready ).call( null, function() {var $freedslider3758779808 = jQuery( \".freed-slider-3758779808\" );$freedslider3758779808.on( \"unslider.ready\", function() { jQuery( \"div.custom-slider ul li\" ).css( \"display\", \"block\" ); });$freedslider3758779808.unslider({ delay:5000, autoplay:true, nav:false, arrows:false, infinite:true });$freedslider3758779808.on(\"mouseover\", function() {$freedslider3758779808.unslider(\"stop\");}).on(\"mouseout\", function() {$freedslider3758779808.unslider(\"start\");});});<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We considered taking the cable car up ourselves, but the tourist information warned us about long queues.

There is everything from relatively accessible valleys to long and demanding tours high up in the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Popular hiking areas include the Ko\u015bcieliska Valley, Chocho\u0142owska Valley, Str\u0105\u017cyska Valley and Hala G\u0105sienicowa. Those looking for a bigger challenge can choose significantly longer and more demanding trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is important to adapt the tour to your experience, fitness level and current weather conditions. Conditions in the mountains can change quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Zakopane\" class=\"wp-image-51785\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-1-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Polen.jpg\" alt=\"Polen\" class=\"wp-image-51783\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Polen.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Polen-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Polen-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Polen-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-Polen-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vandra_till_Morskie_Oko\"><\/span>Hike to Morskie Oko<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most famous excursions from Zakopane is to the mountain lake Morskie Oko, surrounded by dramatic mountain peaks in the Tatra National Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The hike starts at Palenica Bia\u0142cza\u0144ska and the distance up to the lake is about 7.7 kilometers. The official tourist information estimates the walk up to Morskie Oko to take about 2.5 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morskie Oko is also one of the Tatra Mountains&#039; most popular excursion destinations, so anyone looking for solitude in the mountains should not expect to find it here during high season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Upptack_matkultur_och_traditioner_i_Zakopane\"><\/span>Discover the food culture and traditions of Zakopane<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zakopane is not just about nature. The Podhale region has a strong <em>g\u00f3rale culture<\/em>, the traditional culture of the mountain people in the area. It is evident in the architecture, music, crafts, food and traditional costumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"677\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Shopping-Zakopane.jpg\" alt=\"Shopping Zakopane\" class=\"wp-image-51774\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Shopping-Zakopane.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Shopping-Zakopane-600x339.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Shopping-Zakopane-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Shopping-Zakopane-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Shopping-Zakopane-1024x578.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to immerse yourself in the local culture, you can take a walk along the old Ko\u015bcieliska Street, where several historic wooden houses have been preserved. Here you can also find Villa Koliba and other examples of the special Zakopane architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also take the opportunity to try the local food. The most famous is probably <em>oscypek<\/em>, the characteristic smoked cheese from the Tatra Mountains. In the restaurants you can look for rustic dishes from Podhale, preferably on a traditional <em>tavern<\/em> with wooden decor and local food on the menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/R\u00f6kt-ost.jpg\" alt=\"R\u00f6kt ost\" class=\"wp-image-51773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/R\u00f6kt-ost.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/R\u00f6kt-ost-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/R\u00f6kt-ost-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/R\u00f6kt-ost-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/R\u00f6kt-ost-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Every corner sells smoked cheese, jam and honey.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Zakopane_ar_vackert_%E2%80%93_och_valdigt_turistigt\"><\/span>Zakopane is beautiful \u2013 and very touristy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two quite different sides to Zakopane. On the one hand, there is the magnificent nature, mountain culture and beautiful old wooden houses. On the other hand, Zakopane is one of Poland&#039;s most popular holiday resorts \u2013 and it shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Krup\u00f3wki and the area around Guba\u0142\u00f3wka can be bustling with people, souvenir vendors, restaurants and various tourist attractions during high season. We were fascinated by the contrast as much as by the city itself: behind all the hustle and bustle, the mighty Tatra Mountains rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1201\" height=\"675\" src=\"http:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping.jpg\" alt=\"Zakopane shopping\" class=\"wp-image-51775\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping.jpg 1201w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/Zakopane-shopping-1200x674.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1201px) 100vw, 1201px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">... and cuddly toys with Zakopane written on them.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Camping_med_husbil_i_Zakopane\"><\/span>Camping with a motorhome in Zakopane<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During our visit to Zakopane, we stayed with our camper at Camping Harenda, a few kilometers outside the center.

Zakopane is a great starting point for discovering the Polish part of the Tatra Mountains, but the city is also a destination in itself with special architecture, local food culture and a lively city center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to do in Zakopane in the summer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In summer, you can hike in the Tatra Mountains, visit Morskie Oko, climb Guba\u0142\u00f3wka or Kasprowy Wierch, stroll along Krup\u00f3wki and discover the local mountain culture and architecture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How many days do you need in Zakopane?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two or three days may be enough to experience the city and do some excursions, but if you want to do several hikes in the Tatra Mountains, you can easily stay much longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can you ride the cable car in Zakopane in the summer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes. You can take the funicular up to Guba\u0142\u00f3wka and the cable car from Ku\u017anice to Kasprowy Wierch, among other things.
