Zakopane is undoubtedly the most popular ski resort in Poland. It was organized back in the middle of the 19th century, but today's modern equipment and superbly developed infrastructure make it possible not to remember its age. Located in the Tatras 110 km from the old town of Krakow, Zakopane is suitable for both green beginners and advanced professionals. The largest ski area is located on the Kasprowy Wierch mountain. The tracks here are classified as particularly difficult and are marked in black..
The longest slope stretches for almost 7 km, and the height difference on the mountain is more than 900 meters. The Gubalowka area is famous for its beautiful views of the Tatras and the valley below. The funicular from the central part of the resort takes athletes in less than four minutes. The local tracks, and there are six of them in total, are of legitimate interest for the average level of athletes and their advanced companions. And on several training slopes, beginners practice the main exercises. The longest track is about one and a half kilometers, a good half-pipe is equipped for boardwalkers.
