Chocholow

The first point on the tour route will be the historic wooden village of Chocholow. The settlers of this place still follow highlander traditions. One of them is annual washing of building walls with soapy water, thanks to which wooden structures that are over 100 years old still look like new. It's an amazing place and there are many beautiful places to take photos, so it's worth spending some time walking here.

Tatra Adventure Zakopane

The next but equally important stop is "Bacowka" - a shepherd's hut (small cheese factory). This is where you can taste a piece of smoked sheep's cheese straight from the fire and a glass of Polish vodka. This combination is definitely what you need to find this unique taste.
