Country
Poland has twenty-three national parks, small, inexpensive and well marked, with coloured trail blazes and modest entry fees collected at kiosks. The Tatra park above Zakopane is by far the busiest: the road walk to the lake of Morskie Oko and the cable car to Kasprowy Wierch draw queues in July and August, while the high ridges are alpine terrain closed by snow until June. Pieniny, to the east, is known for the raft trip down the Dunajec gorge with highlander boatmen, running from April to October.

Bialowieza protects the last lowland primeval forest in Europe and its free-living bison; the strict reserve is entered only with a licensed guide, best booked for dawn. Biebrza is the great marsh of the north-east, for elk and spring bird migration. On the Baltic, Slowinski has shifting dunes that bury forest, and Wolin has cliffs and a bison enclosure. Bieszczady, in the far south-east, is open grassy ridges and the wildest corner of the country, and Karkonosze runs along the Czech border to the summit of Sniezka.
