Excursión ciclista de un día de Zakopane a Nowy Sącz

Zakopane to Nowy Sącz Cycling Route

Get ready for a memorable ride from the mountain resort town of Zakopane to the charming city of Nowy Sącz! Starting in Zakopane, known as the winter capital of Poland and the gateway to the Tatra Mountains, you'll climb and descend through some truly scenic terrain. The journey covers around 115 km, and while there are some decent climbs—racking up about 1100 meters in ascent—you get even more in the way of descents, making those long downhills extra rewarding.

Most of the route sticks to quiet roads and smooth asphalt, with some stretches of gravel and unpaved paths to keep things interesting. It's a great mix for adventurers who don’t mind a little variety under their wheels.

As you make your way north, you'll pass through tranquil countryside and small mountain villages before arriving in Nowy Sącz. This historic city sits at the crossroads of rivers and trade routes, famous for its beautiful old town and medieval castle ruins.

Pack some snacks, enjoy the views, and don’t forget your camera—this is a ride worth remembering!
