It is a pity to sit at home or rest in an armchair, there will always be time for that. It is better to go outside and open up to the captivating view of Babia Góra, which is beautiful at any time of the year, bicycle routes that will pamper cyclists, walking routes with a medal, ski slopes for winter madmen, open-air museums, wooden churches and the surrounding villages and towns worth exploring .
Zawoja can boast of several ski slopes, including one really cool, quite steep and for rather advanced players - Mosorny Groń. This mighty mountain offers fantastic views of Babia Góra, and with good visibility also of the Tatra Mountains. For beginners and intermediate skiers, there is the Wojtek and Baca slope, where you can hire an instructor and learn to ride without too much stress.
After skiing, tobogganing, a walk uphill or cycling, a jacuzzi in the gazebo and a sauna in a larger cottage await you.
When the snow melts and crocuses and snowdrops appear on the surface, it is worth going to the top of Babia Góra with a lonely island of alpine halls.
If, like us, you love sport in any form, we have a real treat for you. "Babia GóraTrails" is a network of over 20 kilometers of mountain bike routes, the so-called singletrack. On the Polish side, there are kilometers of uphill and downhill routes around Mosorny Groń, with varying degrees of difficulty. Take kids, pads and helmets, and you can rent bikes from us.
