Zdecydowanie zalecam Gubałówkę. Giewont do zbyt poważna góra dla laików.

Yes, it's a very nice hike, the hilltops trail towards Kasprowy is very scenic. How long would it take, it always varies up to factor of 2 times depending on the person, see the statistics on mapa-turystyczna.pl/route?q=49.269507,19.98051;49.250958,19.934097;49.232368,19.981652 and determine how long it'll take you. (this map also displays the "official" time as you'll see on the signpost, but you should not assume you'll make it depending on your experience, plus it excludes any break times). Recall that in September the cable car operates till 6:30 pm. so you need to start early to be sure you'll make it (although walk down is easy 2h hike, so it's not any extreme problem if you miss the cable car. Have a headlight anyway). Just be warned not to hike Giewont in the weekend - it gets unbelievably crowded which will take all the joy out.

Hej, musisz kierować się na Kuźnice i z kuźnic niebieskim szlakiem na Giewont ; )

There is no fee for Giewont specifically, at the beginning of the route you'll pay the standardized fee for entering the trails (5 pln). There are two (three) trails to Giewont, see the map mapa-turystyczna . pl/node/giewont . Blue and red go from Zakopane - both are fine, best use one going up and another down to avoid returning the same way. Keep in mind that Giewont is the most popular peak for mass tourism - if you come in the summer it's best to start this hike super super early to be at the top before most tourists come, otherwise you will find the queue forming at the hardest scrambling sections with chains. If you are in good shape, you can consider a longer option: hiking up Giewont by one of the trails mentioned, and the continuing by yellow-then-red route to Kasprowy Wierch and down to Zakopane. It's arguably the most interesting option but needs certain amount of fitness to fit in the day.

Here are some maps, you will see the legend in English at the bottom to see how cable cars are marked. mapytatr . net/PRODUKTY/MAPY_TAT/WYSOKIE/SLICES/wys_ii . htm (High Tatras) mapytatr . net/PRODUKTY/MAPY_TAT/ZACHODNI/SLICES/zach_i . html (Western Tatras)

Hello, the best idea is to buy a map of Tatra Mountains routes or ask about it in Info Centre in Zakopane. The most popular route is the blue route, which starts in Kuźnice (a part of Zakopane, you can go there with minibuses). You go then through Polana Kalatowki and Hala Kondratowa {(nice views) to Giewont . You can also search in the internet the routes in Tatra Mountains.

Hello. Unfortunately you can't walk with the dog to the Tatra Mountains. It is forbidden to go there with dogs.

There are a lot of beautiful climbs! You could try: Dolina Pięciu Stawów Polski and then Morskie Oko. Park your car at Palenica Białczańska Car Park. Then go to Dolina Pięciu Stawów ( on your way there you could visit Waterfall Siklawa, just follow the signs). The view of the lakes is just amazing. When you get there you can stop for something to eat at the hostel and then follow the route to get to Morskie Oko. Very busy in the season! Lots of walking involved!
