Zakopane Traditional Dunajec Rafting and Mountain Chairlift

Start your journey with a visit to Czorsztyn Castle, beautifully set by the lake and rich in history. Next, stop at a traditional Bacówka (shepherd's hut) to taste regional treats like oscypek cheese and experience local highlander culture. Then, enjoy a scenic rafting trip down the Dunajec River on traditional wooden rafts. As you float through Pieniny National Park, admire views of the Three Crowns and Sokolica peaks, while local raftsmen share stories and legends. After rafting, relax in Szczawnica with a taste of its famous healing waters, known for their mineral content and health benefits. Continue with a chairlift ride to the top of Palenica Mountain (722 m), offering panoramic views of the Pieniny, Beskid Sądecki, and Dunajec Valley. Take a break at the mountaintop restaurant with a drink and the view. End the day in Szczawnica’s charming main square — full of cafes, shops, and local delicacies — perfect for a stroll and some souvenir shopping.
