NEARBY RECOMMENDED TRAILS AND PLACES

Close to our cottages is Toporowa Cyrhla, the starting point for two interesting hiking routes. The first, marked in green, leads to Jaszczurówka via Wielki Kopieniec and the Olczyska Valley. The second, marked in red, is more demanding due to its greater distance and leads through Psia Trawka, Waksmundzka Polana and Wodogrzmoty Mickiewicza all the way to Morskie Oko. Less than two kilometres from the cottages, you will find Brzeziny, where you can follow the black trail through Psia Trawka to the Murowaniec mountain hut. Further east, there are also trails starting in Zazadnia – including the blue trail via Rusinowa Polana to Palenica Białczańska – and at Wierch Poroniec, where the green trail leads through Rusinowa Polana, Gęsia Szyja and Rówień Waksmundzka towards the Gąsienicowa Valley. Osada Podrazówka also offers convenient access to Palenica Białczańska, the starting point of the famous route to Morskie Oko.
