Thanks to the Gondola lift the summit of Jaworzyna Krynicka has become a perfect starting point for hiking trips. Below you will find tips for great outdoor adventures than will certainly impress both beginners and frequent hikers. Enjoy the hikes.

 

Trail No 1 (red marks)

Red marks, part of the Beskidy Main Route.

Elevation difference 494 meters.

Hiking time: down -  2 ½ hrs and up - 4 hrs.

Upon leaving the Gondola station turn right in direction of Muszyna. Soon you cross the Gondola line and leave the ski run behind. Follow a steep path parallel to the Gondola line until you reach a beech forest. Mind the bilberry fields! You will certainly slow down a bit here – who can resist those juicy black fruits?

Trail runs here along a ski run until you reach the "Devil’s Stone". Looking right down at the valley you can see panorama of Krynica-Zdrój. From the Devil’s Stone you head towards the ski run. Take a path alongside the run; first directly under the Gondola line and then steep down through a beech forest parallel to the ski slope. The path becomes a road, wider and easier to walk, and soon it crosses the access road from Czarny Potok to Jaworzyna.

 
 

Trail No 2 (green marks)

From Jaworzyna Krynicka to Czarny Potok

Green marks

Elevation difference 466 meters.

Hiking time: down -  2 ½ hrs and up - 3 hrs.

 

Start from the upper Gondola station and head towards the PTTK hostel. From the hostel take the access road and walk for about 5 minutes to a junction. Attention! Take the uphill path traversing a beech forest. After 20 minutes you cross a ski run No. I and near the bottom station of the ski run No. III you meet the red trial marks. Both trails run together until you reach the Devil’s Stone.

From here a steep at first and then a gentler traverse alongside a spruce stand will take you to the ski run I and the junction with the Gondola lift.  Then follow the red marks and continue parallel to the Gondola lift. After an approximately 3-hour hike you reach the lower Gondola station in Czarny Potok.
