The tour begins with a transfer from Krakow to Zakopane. You will be picked up by car or minivan from a central meeting point at Wielopole 2 street Kiss&Ride tourist bus stop. The ride will take around 2 hours.
On the way to Zakopane, you’ll pass through the traditional wooden village of Chochołów, known for its nearly identical wooden houses. The settlers follow a long-standing tradition of washing the wooden walls with soapy water twice a year, before Christmas and Easter, which keeps even the oldest buildings looking new.
Near Chochołów, in the mountain meadows, locals produce a traditional Polish sheep’s cheese called "Oscypek." As an optional part of your trip, you can choose to visit this place to learn about the production process, taste Oscypek cheese, and sample local fruit-based spirits.
