Beskid Sądecki - Hiking

Krynica is an excellent springboard for hiking in the Beskid Sądecki. Two marked trails, green and red, head westward from Krynica up to the top of Mt Jaworzyna. It takes three hours to walk there by either trail (or you can get there faster by the Mt Jaworzyna cable car). At the top, you'll get some good views, and may even spot the Tatras on clear days.

There's a PTTK Mountain Hostel just below the summit, where you can eat and stay overnight in doubles or cheap dorms, or you can return to Krynica the same day.

You can also continue on the red trail northwest to Hala Łabowska (1038m), another three hours' walk from Mt Jaworzyna, where you'll find another PTTK mountain hostel providing cheap beds and food. The red trail continues northwest to Rytro (four hours' walk). This route, leading mostly through the forest along the ridge of the main chain of the Beskid Sądecki, is spectacular and easy, and because of the accommodation on the way you can travel light. From Rytro, you can go back to Krynica by train or bus.
