Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Zakopane do Kościelisko

Ready for a fresh mountain ride? This short cycling route takes you from the buzzing heart of Zakopane, often called the “Winter Capital of Poland,” to the peaceful village of Kościelisko. It's just under 7 km, but expect nearly 200 meters of ascent—a little challenge worth bragging about!

You’ll start amid the classic wooden architecture and lively mountain vibes of Zakopane. After rolling out, you’ll mostly stick to quiet roads and a bit of peaceful asphalt, threading through some missing-surface patches (so, maybe leave the race tires at home). The route quickly leaves the hustle of Zakopane and delivers sweeping views of the Tatra Mountains as you gain elevation and pass through postcard-worthy landscapes.

Kościelisko is your endpoint—a quieter, more rural spot often praised for its rustic charm and stunning panorama of mountain peaks. Whether you’re just out for fresh air or looking to fuel up on some local shepherd’s cheese, you’re in for a treat at both ends of the ride.
