The perfect place for family vacations with kids in the heart of Poland’s mountains
A region where families can actively spend time, combining outdoor adventures with educational and cultural attractions.
Zakopane and the Tatras are the perfect destination for family vacations, where kids can enjoy gentle walks through valleys like Kościeliska Valley with its streams and caves, Chochołowska Valley with wooden huts, or Strążyska Valley with easy paths leading to a waterfall. In summer, families can rent bikes and ride around Zakopane, visit nearby mini-zoos, or play at playgrounds with mountain views. For older kids, less crowded trails like Rusinowa Polana are recommended, where you can encounter grazing sheep and learn about local wildlife like marmots or chamois. These activities build fitness, teach navigation skills, and let you admire the Tatras’ unique nature. Fun fact: the Tatras are home to Poland’s only population of Tatra chamois, a symbol of the national park, often spotted on rocky slopes.
Activities for young and old
The Zakopane region is full of educational spots, such as the Tatra National Park’s Nature Education Center with interactive exhibits on fauna and flora, or the Tatra Museum with displays on mountain history and highlander traditions. Families can explore legends of bandits in taverns, listen to folk music, or admire wooden villas in the Zakopane style. In summer, valleys like Mała Łąka offer peaceful picnics, while winter sleigh rides with horses are a delight for the youngest. Fun fact: Morskie Oko, the largest lake in the Tatras, is said to be connected to the Baltic Sea by an underground tunnel, according to legend. Zakopane’s Triotravel.pl travel agency tailors packages to family needs, ensuring safe and engaging trips.
