Zakopane and Thermal Pools from Krakow

Discover the beauty and traditions of the Tatra region on this full-day tour from Krakow. Begin in Chochołów, a village famous for its preserved wooden houses that showcase authentic highland architecture. Next, stop at a traditional bacówka (shepherd’s hut) to taste freshly made oscypek cheese and try regional highlander spirits—a true taste of the mountains. Then head to Zakopane, Poland’s winter capital. Enjoy free time to stroll along Krupówki Street, explore local shops, try regional food, and ride the funicular up Gubałówka Hill for stunning views of the Tatra Mountains. After your Zakopane experience, unwind at Chochołowskie Termy—the largest thermal baths in the region. Relax in naturally heated pools, enjoy the mountain views from outdoor jacuzzis, or treat yourself to a sauna session. It’s the perfect way to end your day surrounded by the healing power of mineral-rich waters.
